CONNECTION BASED ON CAPACITY

THREE TYPES OF ONTERNAL FORCES


 SHEAR CONNECTION
 AXIAL CONNECTION
 MOMENT CONNECTION
SHEAR CONNECTION
Is designed to transfer shear forces which act parallel to a surface.
Shear forces can cause pats of a structure to slide or move relative to
each other. Shear connection is concerned with transmitting these
lateral forces between members
TYPES OF SHEAR CONNECTIONS
 Angle connection
 Double angle connection
 Single plate
 Tee
MOMENT CONNECTION
Is designed to transfer both bending moments and shear forces
between members bending moment cause a member to deform by
curving or rotating
TYPES OF MOMENT CONNECTIONS
 Flange plate
structural connection used to join two or more steel
members together, typically in the construction industry. It
involves the use of flanges, which are flat, circular plates with
holes, welded to the ends of steel beams or columns, and then
bolted together to form a connection.
 Through plate
TRANSFER MOMENT BETWEEN MEMBERS THROUGH THE
USE OF A RIGID PLATE THAT IS EAITHER BOLTED OR WELDED TO
THE MEMBERS
 Collared plate
like a through plate connection in that they are both welded
to the column and bolted to the beam. However, the
difference is that the collared plate has a hole in which the
column fits. So, there is no need for insertion through the
column.

Axial connections
primarily carry axial loads and include splices, bracing, truss
connections, and hangers. They are typically used to connect columns
to columns, or beams to beams sometimes with different section sizes.

CONNECTION BASED ON TYPE OF MEMBER


ASSOCIATED WITH…
BEAM TO COLUMN
These connections are used to join horizontal beams
to vertical columns
COLUMN TO COLUMN
These connections are used to join two or more
connection of columns together vertically
BEAM TO BEAM
These connections are essential for transferring loads and
ensuring stability of building
