Large Portal Frame Steel Building | Tekla 2017 Model

The types of connections details that are used in commercial buildings reflect the type of members that are connected and the magnitude of the loads that are resisted. For example, connections to columns are made by beams that are generally at right angles to the column, and so consist of connections to the column flange and to the column’s web. Bolted rather than welded connections are used and the standard size of bolt is 20mm diameter, grade 8.8.

Fin plate connections are preferred by steelwork contractors for the beam to beam connections as they do not require notching of the in-coming beams but have the disadvantage that the fin plate can be long, and therefore subject to buckling. Otherwise, the secondary beams are notched where they are level with the primary beams primary beams to which they are connected. In this case, the end plate is ‘partial depth’ as it is welded to a part of the web.
