Steeltek Connection

1. The document provides design forces and geometric data for designing a moment end-plate connection including a design moment of 1740 kNm, axial force of -75 kN, and shear of 40 kN. 2. Calculations are shown to determine the required bolt diameter of 24.1 mm, required end plate thickness of 23.0 mm, and that the shear per bolt is less than the allowable capacity. 3. Weld sizes are determined to be 23/16 inches for the top flange to end plate weld and 6/16 inches for the beam web to end plate weld.

Moment End-Plate Connection Design (Flush Type)

Design Forces

Design Moment M1 = 1740 kNm 15400.74 k-in


Axial force P = -75 kN -16.90 kips *+*ve for comression and *-*ve for tension
Design Shear V = 40 kN 8.99 kips

Consider

End-late material yield stress, Fpy= 50.0 ksi 345 N/mm^2


Nominal Tensile strength of Bolts, Ft= 90.0 ksi 621 N/mm^2 ,90 ksi for A 325, 113 ksi for A490
Allowable shear stress of bolts= 10.5 ksi 72 N/mm^2
φ= 0.75
φb= 0.90

Geometric Design Data


Width of flange, bf = 200.00 mm 7.87 inch
End plate width, bp = 200.00 mm 7.87 inch
Thickness of flange, tf = 11.00 mm 0.43 inch
Bolt gage, g = 70.00 mm 2.76 inch
pf = 50.00 mm 1.969 inch
pb = 90.00 mm 3.54 inch
h= 1340.00 mm 52.76 inch
Web thickness, tw 8.00 mm 0.31 inch
Number of rows of bolt,n = 3

Calculate
d1 = 1200 mm 47.24 inch
d2= 1110 mm 43.70 inch
d3= 1020 mm 40.16 inch
d4= 930 mm 36.61 inch
d5= 840 mm 33.07 inch
d6= 750 mm 29.53 inch
d7= 660 mm 25.98 inch
h1= 1195 mm 47.0 inch
h2= 655 mm 25.8 inch
γr = 1.25 for flush connections

Maxial= P/2*(h-tf)
= -442.13 k-in
M= M1-Maxial
= 15842.87 kips
Mu= 1.5*(M-Maxial)
= 24427.50 k-in
Flange Force, Ff= M/(h-tf)
= 297.86 kips

1. required bolt dia, db,req


= (2*Mu /(∏*φ*Ft*∑dn))^0.5
= 0.948 inch 24.1 mm
Acceted, db = 25 mm 1.0 inch

2. Solve for end plate thickness, tp,reqd,

s= 1/2*(bp*g)^0.5
= 2.33 inch 59 mm
pf = 50.00 mm ≤s 50.00 mm = pf, use
= 1.97 inch
Y= bp/2*(h1/pf+h2/s)+2/g*(h1*(pf+0.75pb)+h2*(s+0.25*pb)) + g/2
= 357.0 inch 9067.47 mm
Pt= ∏*db *Ft/4
2

= 68.48 kips
φMnp= φ(2*Pt*(∑dn))
= 9341.5 k-in

tp,reqd = sqrt(1.1*γr*(φMnp)/(φb*Fpy*Y))
= 0.894 inch 23.0 mm

3. Check for Shear

Shear per bolt (V/(2*n)) = 1.50 kips 7 kN


Shear capacity per bolt = 7.99 kips 36 kN ≥ Applied shear per bolt ok

4. Weld design
a) Top Flange to end plate weld
Dreqd= Ff/((2*(bf -tf)-tw)*0.928)
= 22.0 sixteenths
Use 23 /16 inch fillet welds

b) Beam web to end plate weld


D= 0.6*Fy*tw/(2*0.928)
5.09 sixteenths
Use 6 /16 inch fillet welds
