Does anyone know of a good design example for a moment plate splice at the ridge of a pre-engineered metal building. I see the example of a moment end plate connection in the AISC, but was looking for an example of a back to back bolted plate connection at a mid-span condition. Thank you and have a great day.

It can in theory be pinned at the ridge if you look at the whole thing acting like a three pinned arch.
