WELDED INTERIOR BEAM-TO-COLUMN CONNECTIONS TRANSFER OF STRESSES IN WELDED COVER PLATES A SURVEY OF LITERATURE ON THE LATERAL INSTABILITY OF BEAMS
| Organization: | WRC |
| Publication Date: | 1 August 1960 |
| Status: | active |
scope:
Previous research on beam-to-column connections has not been carried to the point where definite conclusions, suitable for the designer, can be reached. In particular, information is lacking on the criteria for the need of column stiffening and on the criteria for designing it when it is needed. Information is also lacking concerning the moment-rotation capacity of a connection and concerning the effect on connections of beams framing into the column web as occurs in four-way connections.
