Abstract:Conventional I‐beam‐to‐SHS‐column moment resisting connections are generally stiffened with external diaphragms in order to limit excessive deformation of the tube‐wall. Passing through plates welded to the tube is an alternative solution that can develop significant strength and stiffness. This solution has been applied to CHS column and initial findings from RFCS project LASTEICON were encouraging. RHS columns are also widely used in practice due to simplicity of connections manufacturing. The new RFCS proje… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
