I'm trying to design an End-Plate connection. I have to use pre-tensioned bolts because of regulations. so my question is where can i find a design procedure for this connection.
it's worth mentioning again that i want to use pre-tensioned and not normal bolts.
 
AISC 358-05 if your moment connection is used in Special and Intermediate Steel Moment Frames in seismic applications.
 
There are explanations and examples in AISC 9th ed. in connections section, I believe. If you are using 13th, it's probably in there, too.
 
Tanx JAE,

The Design Guide 4 is awesome. i found answers for all my questions.

Tanx again.
