Abstract:Column base plate connection is one of the most critical structural components of steel momentresisting frames which acts as a transfer medium to transmit the reaction forces, shear and moments from the entire building into the foundation. Failure of these base plate connections is critical since it can result in the collapse of the entire structure. Very often these base plates experience bidirectional lateral loadings from natural events such as wind and earthquake. Previous studies considered uniaxial later… Show more
