What is the best location to place a splice joint
At zero moment or zero shear.. (For a beam section)..or some where else...why..
2 nd if my beam has a axial loading, the is delta effect, does it change anything...

I am currently working with flat bars and since my flat bars cannot extent to complete length of the beam , i have to join 2 flat bars by bolting or welding them using plates..
where should i place my connection..
Could anyone let me know, what is term for it..
If i have I shape (W-shape)or channel section what are the changes then

Then you have a increased Tension (i.e increased BM by C)by the Compression on the beam

Can i place my splice (Bolted), at inflection point (Point where my BM is zero)...Is this a good location to place the splice..
Others can answer the question too.
Thanks guy's for your help
