Beam End Connectors

(OP)
Is there a British Standard or otherwise for Beam End Connectors, or do each fabricator have their own

RE: Beam End Connectors

L17Aurora,
The British steelwork association has a few publications on simple and moment connections for the ends of beams. you can view these publications on the web site attached
http://www.steelconstruction.org/steelconstruction/guestLogin

Just go to publications joints in steel construction simple or moment. If you detail your connections as per these manuals most fabricators will be happy enough.
 

When in doubt, just take the next small step.
 

RE: Beam End Connectors

The BCSA also has a very comprehensive manual on connections in 2 volumes - Volume 1 for simple connections and Volume 2 for moment connections with capacity tables etc. Though mine is a bit old and has the tables for grade 43 steel only.
