Prequalified Connections for Special and Intermediate Steel Moment Frames for Seismic Applications
Published 4 months ago
Description
Detailing prequalified connections for special and intermediate steel moment frames used in seismic applications. It outlines specific design procedures and limitations for several proprietary and non-proprietary connections, including the Reduced Beam Section (RBS), Extended End-Plate, Kaiser Bolted Bracket (KBB), ConXtech ConXL, SidePlate, Simpson Strong-Tie Strong Frame, and Double-Tee moment connections. The document includes numerous engineering equations, detailing requirements, and material specifications for various structural components like bolts, welds, and plates, often referencing the broader AISC Seismic Provisions for quality control, fabrication, and member limits. Furthermore, appendices provide stringent requirements for casting and forging processes used for specialized connection components.
