Single shear plates loaded with axial+shear force

Single shear plates loaded with axial+shear force

Single shear plates loaded with axial+shear force

(OP)
Is there any example of single shear plate design in connections such as vertical bracings or axially loaded beams where beam to column connection is shear plate?

RE: Single shear plates loaded with axial+shear force

If I remember correctly, there are a few in AISC's "Hollow Structural Sections Connections Manual"

RE: Single shear plates loaded with axial+shear force

(OP)
There are few, you are right-but examples are for shear OR axially loaded plates, not when forces actually act together.   

RE: Single shear plates loaded with axial+shear force

I don't believe there are any in the HSS Connections
Manual, but I'm certain there is at least one in the Seismic Design Manual.

RE: Single shear plates loaded with axial+shear force

Yes, See Example 5.2 in the Seismic Design Manual (Page 5-11 in the 3rd Edition)

RE: Single shear plates loaded with axial+shear force

(OP)
Thank you all for answers.
I've ordered Seismic Design Manual, but it will arrive in two to three weeks!
In meantime, can I design the shear plate first for shear and than for axial load, is my plate going to be underdesigned ot overdesigned?
