End Plate Moment Connections
(OP)
What do you guys use for design of end plate moment connections? I have been doing it by hand using equations based on yield-line theory that are presented in my steel textbook (Segui)?? The equations are pretty long and tedious. It is quickly becoming apparent that hand calcs aren't a feasible option because it is a bear to make changes to the connection without having to rerun the numbers. Of course, these connections are subject to a detail requirements and get changed a lot. I am just curious how you guys usually handle these connections??

Does RAM baseplate address all of the provisions of the AISC 358 for SMurF's? I just crawled through that armed with Excel...
