Simple Connection Design
Simple Connection Design
(OP)
Hi,
I`m wondering if there is any rule of thumb for beam to column simple connection design (let say using single angle clip) when there is no reactions specified on the drawing?
I have heard that I can take half of Vr of the beam and use it as reaction but I`m not very comfortable with that. Can you share some thoughts on that please?
Thanks

Where I used to work, we did some big steel boiler rooms. We would only post reactions when they exceeded this.

I have PE who is going to check and stamp the drawings before it will be issued for construction.
Thanks for your concern.

If you are in fact, already working with a PE on this detailing project; and he/she is going to be stamping and signing the drawings, why wouldn’t you go to him/her for guidance on this matter? It’s certainly not bad to get other opinions, but he/she is ultimately responsible for overseeing this work, and signing off on it.
