Diseño de conexión de refuerzo vertical

Vertical brace connection design to AISC 360 starts with the Uniform Force Method, which splits each brace force between the gusset-to-beam interface, the gusset-to-column interface and the beam-to-column connection. Then each interface gets its own checks: the brace bolts and the gusset at the brace, the weld and the beam web where the gusset meets the beam, the bolted single plate where the gusset meets the column, and the single plate that carries the beam’s shear and axial force into the column flange.

Esta página funciona con un ejemplo real de principio a fin.. A W18x50 beam frames into the flange of a W14x90 column, with a gusset above and below the beam. Each gusset takes a 2L5x5x1/2 brace at 45° that carries 62 kip in tension or compression (LRFD). The beam also carries 38 kip of shear and a 132 kip transfer force. All bolts are 1 in A490 slip-critical. El diseño es para AISC. 360-16, el Manual AISC 15.a edición y la Guía de diseño AISC 29. Cada ecuación está escrita con sus números., in the same order as the calc sheet that the SkyCiv Connection Design El módulo produce para esta conexión..

What is a vertical brace connection?

A vertical brace connection joins a diagonal brace to the corner where a beam meets a column, through a gusset plate attached to both. In a braced frame these connections carry the lateral load down the building. Here there are two corners at the same beam-to-column joint: one gusset sits on top of the beam with a brace rising away from the column, and a second gusset hangs below the beam with a brace running down. Each brace is a pair of 5x5x1/2 angles back to back, one on each face of its gusset.

Each gusset is shop welded to the beam flange and bolted to the column flange through a 3/8 in single plate. The beam is bolted to the column through a 1/2 in single plate welded to the column flange. Because the gusset touches two members, the brace force does not have one obvious path, and the Uniform Force Method decides how much goes where. Puedes comprobar este ejemplo directamente en el calculadora de conexión de arriostramiento vertical. The beam-to-column part is a conexión de placa única carrying both shear and axial force. The brace-to-gusset checks are the same ones used in the calculadora de conexión de tirantes chevron y el calculadora de conexión de rodillera.

Vertical brace connection design example elevation: W18x50 beam bolted through a 1/2 in single plate to a W14x90 column flange, with upper and lower 1/2 en grado A572 50 gussets welded to the beam and bolted to the column through 3/8 in single plates, each taking a 2L5x5x1/2 brace at 45 degrees with 62 kip in tension or compression

Elevación de la conexión de ejemplo.. Both gussets are 15 1/2 in square, and each brace line runs through the work point where the beam and column centrelines meet.

The A36 grade on the 3/8 in gusset single plate and the angles is normal for those parts. All three interfaces use slip-critical bolts, which is required here because every interface has oversized or slotted holes (AISC 360-16 J3.2).

Paso 1: Distribute the brace force with the Uniform Force Method (Parte del manual AISC 13)

The Uniform Force Method picks gusset dimensions so that the forces at the gusset-to-beam and gusset-to-column interfaces carry no moment, then splits the brace force between them. Whatever horizontal force the gusset puts into the column has to come back out of the beam, so it also changes the axial force in the beam-to-column connection.

Dónde [mathin] e_{b} = d_{bm}/2 = 9\,in [mathin], [mathin] e_{c} = d_{c}/2 = 7\,in [mathin], [mathin] \tan\theta = 1 [mathin] y [mathin] \beta = 7.75\,in [mathin], half the gusset height on the column. The ideal centroid of the gusset-to-beam force follows from the UFM constraint:

[math] \alpha = e_{b} \tan\theta – e_{c} + \beta \tan\theta = (9\,in) \times (1) – (7\,in) + (7.75\,in) \times (1) = 9.75\,in [math]

The actual centroid of the gusset-to-beam weld is [mathin] \bar{\alpha} = 15.5/2 + 0.75 = 8.5\,in [mathin] from the column face: half the gusset length plus the setback. The distance that sets the force split is:

[math] r = \sqrt{\left( \alpha + e_{c} \right)^{2} + \left( \beta + e_{b} \right)^{2}} = \sqrt{\left( (9.75\,in) + (7\,in) \right)^{2} + \left( (7.75\,in) + (9\,in) \right)^{2}} = 23.688\,in [math]

The interface forces, con [mathin] P = 62\,kip [mathin]:

[math] H_{c} = \frac{e_{c}\, P}{r} = \frac{(7\,in) \times (62\,kip)}{(23.688\,in)} = 18.321\,kip [math]

[math] H_{b} = \frac{\alpha\, P}{r} = \frac{(9.75\,in) \times (62\,kip)}{(23.688\,in)} = 25.519\,kip [math]

The vertical force at the beam would be [mathin] e_{b} P / r = 23.556\,kip [mathin]. This report uses Special Case 2 of the method (Parte del manual AISC 13, Guía de diseño 29 Ejemplo 5.3) and moves all of it to the gusset-to-column interface as [mathin] \Delta V_{b} = 23.556\,kip [mathin]. That way the beam-to-column connection does not have to carry the brace’s vertical force, at the cost of a moment on the gusset-to-beam interface:

[math] V_{c} = \frac{\beta\, P}{r} + \Delta V_{b} = \frac{(7.75\,in) \times (62\,kip)}{(23.688\,in)} + (23.556\,kip) = 43.841\,kip [math]

[math] V_{b} = \frac{e_{b}\, P}{r} – \Delta V_{b} = \frac{(9\,in) \times (62\,kip)}{(23.688\,in)} – (23.556\,kip) = 0\,kip [math]

[math] M_{b} = V_{b} \left| \alpha – \bar{\alpha} \right| + \Delta V_{b} \left| \alpha \right| = (0\,kip) \times \left| (9.75\,in) – (8.5\,in) \right| + (23.556\,kip) \times \left| (9.75\,in) \right| = 19.139\,kip{\cdot}ft [math]

The beam-to-column connection then carries the beam’s own forces plus the horizontal force each gusset sends straight to the column, which the beam has to bring back:

[math] C_{total} = T_{total} = C_{u} + \max\left( H_{c,upper},\, H_{c,lower} \right) = (132\,kip) + (18.321\,kip) = 150.32\,kip [math]

[math] V_{total} = V_{u} + V_{b,upper} + V_{b,lower} = (38\,kip) + (0\,kip) + (0\,kip) = 38\,kip [math]

Because the brace is at 45° and [mathin] e_{b} > e_{c} [mathin], the beam interface takes the larger share of the horizontal force, 25.519 salto del 43.84 kip brace component.

Paso 2: Detallando límites en los pernos de riostra (AISC 360-16 J3.3, J3.4, J3.5)

La disposición de los pernos debe ser edificable y coincidir con los supuestos detrás de las ecuaciones de resistencia.. Los pernos que están demasiado cerca se rompen entre los agujeros., y los bordes que están demasiado cerca se arrancan.

Vertical brace connection design example brace detail: each 2L5x5x1/2 A36 brace bolted to its 1/2 in gusset with three 1 in A490-SC bolts at 3 en el espaciado, 1 1/2 in end distance and oversized holes in the gusset, con 9 in from the last bolt to the beam flange

Detalle de conexión de tirantes. Three bolts per brace at 3 in, oversized holes in the gusset and standard holes in the angles.

Para 1 en perno el espacio mínimo es [mathin] 2\tfrac{2}{3} d_{b} = 2.667\,in [mathin] (J3.3) y la distancia mínima al borde es 1.25 in (Tabla J3.4). El refuerzo tiene agujeros de gran tamaño., por lo que el incremento de la Tabla J3.5 de 1/8 in aumenta su distancia final mínima a 1.375 in.

Límite de detalles Límite (in) Actual (in) DCR Resultado
Calibre mínimo de pernos 2.000 3.000 0.667 PASAR
Distancia mínima entre filas de tornillos 2.667 3.000 0.889 PASAR
Distancia máxima entre filas de tornillos 6.000 3.000 0.500 PASAR
Gusset minimum vertical edge distance (OVS) 1.375 1.500 0.917 PASAR
Distancia mínima al borde vertical del arriostramiento 1.250 1.500 0.833 PASAR
Distancia mínima al borde horizontal del arriostramiento 1.250 2.000 0.625 PASAR

The horizontal edge distance on the angle is the 5 in leg less the 3 en calibre, 2 in. La fila gobernante es la distancia del extremo del refuerzo con su incremento de orificio sobredimensionado.:

[math] DCR = \frac{d}{c} = \frac{(1.375)}{(1.5)} = 0.91667 [math]

DCR = 0.917 < 1.0, OK

Paso 3: Slip resistance of the brace bolts (AISC 360-16 J3.8)

El refuerzo tiene agujeros de gran tamaño., cual AISC 360-16 J3.2 permite solo en juntas de deslizamiento crítico. The bolts are pretensioned, and friction between the angles and the gusset carries the brace force. La comprobación es que la junta no resbale bajo la carga mayorada..

Dónde [mathin] \phi = 0.85 [mathin] para agujeros de gran tamaño, [mathin] \mu = 0.3 [mathin] for a Class A surface, [mathin] D_{u} = 1.13 [mathin], [mathin] h_{f} = 1 [mathin] porque no hay rellenos, [mathin] T_{b} = 64\,kip [mathin] para 1 en perno A490 (Tabla J3.1), [mathin] N_{s} = 2 [mathin] slip planes because the gusset sits between the two angles, [mathin] n_{r} = 3 [mathin] y [mathin] n_{c} = 1 [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi\, \mu\, D_{u}\, h_{f}\, T_{b}\, N_{s}\, n_{r}\, n_{c} [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = (0.85) \times (0.3) \times (1.13) \times (1) \times (64\,kip) \times (2) \times (3) \times (1) [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = 110.65\,kip [math]

DCR = 62 kip / 110.65 salto = 0.560 < 1.0, OK

The double angle doubles the slip strength for free: each bolt clamps two faying surfaces.

Paso 4: Bolt bearing and tear-out on the gusset (AISC 360-16 J3.10)

Aún es necesario comprobar el rodamiento de los pernos críticos para el deslizamiento., because if the joint slips the bolts bear on the sides of their holes. The bolt nearest the gusset’s edge has the least material in front of it.

El orificio del refuerzo es de gran tamaño., [mathin] d_{h} = 1.25\,in [mathin]. Clear distances for the end bolt and between bolts:

[math] l_{c1} = L_{ev} – \frac{d_{h}}{2} = (1.5\,in) – \frac{(1.25\,in)}{2} = 0.875\,in [math]

[math] l_{c2} = s_{r} – d_{h} = (3\,in) – (1.25\,in) = 1.75\,in [math]

Dónde [mathin] t_{gp} = 0.5\,in [mathin], [mathin] F_{u,gp} = 65\,ksi [mathin], [mathin] n_{r} = 3 [mathin], [mathin] n_{c} = 1 [mathin], [mathin] d_{b} = 1\,in [mathin] y [mathin] \phi = 0.75 [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi \left[ \min\left(1.2\, l_{c1},\, 2.4\, d_{b}\right) t_{gp} F_{u,gp}\, n_{c} + \min\left(1.2\, l_{c2},\, 2.4\, d_{b}\right) t_{gp} F_{u,gp}\, n_{c} \left( n_{r} – 1 \right) \right] [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = (0.75) \times \left[ \min\left(1.2 \times (0.875\,in),\, 2.4 \times (1\,in)\right) \times (0.5\,in) \times (65\,ksi) \times (1) + \min\left(1.2 \times (1.75\,in),\, 2.4 \times (1\,in)\right) \times (0.5\,in) \times (65\,ksi) \times (1) \times ((3) – 1) \right] [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = 127.97\,kip [math]

DCR = 62 kip / 127.97 salto = 0.484 < 1.0, OK

El desgarro gobierna cada perno, because the oversized hole cuts into the clear distance.

Paso 5: Cojinete de perno y desgarro en la abrazadera. (AISC 360-16 J3.10)

The same check applies to the angles. Both angle legs bear on the bolts, so the bearing thickness is twice the leg, [mathin] 2 t_{l,br} = 1\,in [mathin].

The angles have standard holes, [mathin] d_{h} = 1.125\,in [mathin]:

[math] l_{c1} = (1.5\,in) – \frac{(1.125\,in)}{2} = 0.9375\,in \qquad l_{c2} = (3\,in) – (1.125\,in) = 1.875\,in [math]

Con [mathin] F_{u,br} = 58\,ksi [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi \left[ \min\left(1.2\, l_{c1},\, 2.4\, d_{b}\right) 2 t_{l,br} F_{u,br}\, n_{c} + \min\left(1.2\, l_{c2},\, 2.4\, d_{b}\right) 2 t_{l,br} F_{u,br}\, n_{c} \left( n_{r} – 1 \right) \right] [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = (0.75) \times \left[ \min\left(1.2 \times (0.9375\,in),\, 2.4 \times (1\,in)\right) \times (1\,in) \times (58\,ksi) \times (1) + \min\left(1.2 \times (1.875\,in),\, 2.4 \times (1\,in)\right) \times (1\,in) \times (58\,ksi) \times (1) \times ((3) – 1) \right] [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = 244.69\,kip [math]

DCR = 62 kip / 244.69 salto = 0.253 < 1.0, OK

Paso 6: Block shear of the gusset at the brace (AISC 360-16 J4.3)

Un bloque del refuerzo puede romperse alrededor de los pernos.: shear along the bolt line and tension across to the gusset’s edge. With one bolt line, this is an L-shaped block.

Dónde [mathin] L_{eh,gp} = 2\,in [mathin] is the edge distance on the gusset beside the bolt line, [mathin] L_{br,gp} = 9\,in [mathin] is the length of brace on the gusset, y cada agujero suma 1/16 in for damage (B4.3):

[math] A_{nt} = t_{gp} \left[ (n_{c}-1)\, s_{c} + L_{eh,gp} – (n_{c} – 0.5) \left( d_{h} + 0.0625\,in \right) \right] = (0.5\,in) \times \left[ 0 + (2\,in) – ((1) – 0.5) \times ((1.25\,in) + (0.0625\,in)) \right] = 0.67188\,in^{2} [math]

[math] A_{gv} = t_{gp} \left[ L_{ev} + (n_{r}-1)\, s_{r} \right] = (0.5\,in) \times \left[ (1.5\,in) + ((3)-1) \times (3\,in) \right] = 3.75\,in^{2} [math]

[math] A_{nv} = t_{gp} \left[ L_{br,gp} – L_{ev} – (n_{r} – 0.5)\left( d_{h} + 0.0625\,in \right) \right] = (0.5\,in) \times \left[ (9\,in) – (1.5\,in) – ((3) – 0.5) \times ((1.25\,in) + (0.0625\,in)) \right] = 2.1094\,in^{2} [math]

Con [mathin] U_{bs} = 1 [mathin] y [mathin] \phi = 0.75 [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi \left( 0.6\, F_{u} A_{nv} + U_{bs} F_{u} A_{nt} \le 0.6\, F_{y} A_{gv} + U_{bs} F_{u} A_{nt} \right) [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = (0.75) \times \left( 0.6 \times (65\,ksi) \times (2.1094\,in^{2}) + (1) \times (65\,ksi) \times (0.67188\,in^{2}) \le 0.6 \times (50\,ksi) \times (3.75\,in^{2}) + (1) \times (65\,ksi) \times (0.67188\,in^{2}) \right) = 94.453\,kip [math]

DCR = 62 kip / 94.453 salto = 0.656 < 1.0, OK

This is the highest strength check on the brace side. Shear rupture on the net section governs over shear yielding.

Paso 7: Corte en bloque de la riostra (AISC 360-16 J4.3)

The same tear-out can happen in the angle legs. Both angles act together, entonces el espesor es [mathin] 2 t_{l,br} = 1\,in [mathin], with standard holes [mathin] d_{h} = 1.125\,in [mathin] y el 2 in leg edge [mathin] L_{eh,br} [mathin]:

[math] A_{nt} = (1\,in) \times \left[ 0 + (2\,in) – 0.5 \times ((1.125\,in) + (0.0625\,in)) \right] = 1.4063\,in^{2} [math]

[math] A_{gv} = (1\,in) \times \left[ (1.5\,in) + 2 \times (3\,in) \right] = 7.5\,in^{2} [math]

[math] A_{nv} = (1\,in) \times \left[ (9\,in) – (1.5\,in) – 2.5 \times ((1.125\,in) + (0.0625\,in)) \right] = 4.5313\,in^{2} [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = (0.75) \times \left( 0.6 \times (58\,ksi) \times (4.5313\,in^{2}) + (1) \times (58\,ksi) \times (1.4063\,in^{2}) \le 0.6 \times (36\,ksi) \times (7.5\,in^{2}) + (1) \times (58\,ksi) \times (1.4063\,in^{2}) \right) = 179.44\,kip [math]

DCR = 62 kip / 179.44 salto = 0.346 < 1.0, OK

Paso 8: Gusset in tension on the Whitmore section (AISC 360-16 J4.1)

The brace force spreads into the gusset at about 30° on each side of the bolt line. The Whitmore section is the width of that spread at the last bolt, and the gusset has to yield and rupture on it no earlier than the brace force.

Con [mathin] L_{br} = (n_{r}-1) s_{r} = 6\,in [mathin] y [mathin] W_{br} = 0 [mathin] for a single bolt line (AISC Manual Fig. 9-1):

[math] W = 2\, L_{br} \tan 30^{\circ} + W_{br} = 2 \times (6\,in) \times \tan 30^{\circ} + 0 = 6.9282\,in [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,ty} = \phi\, F_{y,gp}\, t_{gp}\, W = (0.9) \times (50\,ksi) \times (0.5\,in) \times (6.9282\,in) = 155.88\,kip [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,tr} = \phi\, F_{u,gp}\, t_{gp} \left[ W – n_{c}\left( d_{h} + 0.0625\,in \right) \right] = (0.75) \times (65\,ksi) \times (0.5\,in) \times \left[ (6.9282\,in) – (1) \times ((1.25\,in) + (0.0625\,in)) \right] = 136.88\,kip [math]

DCR = 62 kip / 136.88 salto = 0.453 < 1.0, OK

Paso 9: Arriostramiento en rotura por tensión con retraso de corte (AISC 360-16 D3, J4.1)

Only one leg of each angle is bolted, so the stress in the outstanding legs has to lag in through the connected legs. The shear lag factor U reduces the net area to account for this.

Con [mathin] \bar{y} = 1.42\,in [mathin] and connection length [mathin] (n_{r}-1) s_{r} = 6\,in [mathin] (Tabla D3.1, Caso 2):

[math] U = 1 – \frac{\bar{y}}{(n_{r}-1)\, s_{r}} = 1 – \frac{(1.42\,in)}{((3)-1) \times (3\,in)} = 0.76343 [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi\, F_{u,br}\, U \left[ A_{br} – n_{c} \left( d_{h} + 0.0625\,in \right) 2 t_{l,br} \right] = (0.75) \times (58\,ksi) \times (0.76343) \times \left[ (9.58\,in^{2}) – (1) \times ((1.125\,in) + (0.0625\,in)) \times (1\,in) \right] = 278.71\,kip [math]

DCR = 62 kip / 278.71 salto = 0.222 < 1.0, OK

Paso 10: Gusset in compression buckling (AISC 360-16 J4.4, E3)

When the brace pushes, the Whitmore strip of gusset between the last bolt and the gusset’s supported edges acts as a short column.

Con [mathin] K = 1.2 [mathin], [mathin] L = 9\,in [mathin] y [mathin] r = t_{gp}/\sqrt{12} [mathin], [mathin] KL/r = 74.825 [mathin], which is above 25, so Chapter E applies. It is also below [mathin] 4.71\sqrt{E/F_{y}} = 113.43 [mathin], entonces ecuación. Se aplica E3-2:

[math] F_{e} = \frac{\pi^{2} E}{\left( KL/r \right)^{2}} = \frac{\pi^{2} \times (29000\,ksi)}{(74.825)^{2}} = 51.122\,ksi [math]

[math] F_{cr} = 0.658^{\frac{F_{y}}{F_{e}}} F_{y} = 0.658^{\frac{(50\,ksi)}{(51.122\,ksi)}} \times (50\,ksi) = 33.204\,ksi [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi\, F_{cr}\, t_{gp}\, W = (0.9) \times (33.204\,ksi) \times (0.5\,in) \times (6.9282\,in) = 103.52\,kip [math]

DCR = 62 kip / 103.52 salto = 0.599 < 1.0, OK

Buckling cuts the gusset’s compression strength to about two thirds of its yield strength in tension. A 9 in unbraced length is about the most a 1/2 in gusset can take at this load.

Paso 11: Minimum fillet weld size at the beam (AISC 360-16 J2.2b)

Una soldadura de filete que es demasiado pequeña para las piezas que une puede agrietarse al enfriarse.. Table J2.4 sets the minimum by the thinner part, aquí el 1/2 en refuerzo, entonces el mínimo es 3/16 in.

[math] DCR = \frac{d}{c} = \frac{(0.188)}{(0.188)} = 1 [math]

DCR = 1.000, OK

una proporción de 1.000 here means the 3/16 en soldadura es exactamente el tamaño más pequeño permitido. Its strength is checked next.

Paso 12: Gusset-to-beam weld (AISC 360-16 J2.4, Guía de diseño AISC 29)

The weld carries the horizontal force [mathin] H_{b} [mathin] along its length, plus the moment [mathin] M_{b} [mathin] desde el paso 1 as a varying normal force. The check uses the peak force per inch at the most loaded end.

Límite del metal base en el tamaño de la soldadura (Ecuación manual AISC. 9-2)

The weld cannot be stronger than the metal it is fused to. The gusset is welded on both faces, so it gets half its thickness per weld:

[math] D_{max} = \frac{t_{f,bm} F_{u,bm} \le 0.5\, t_{gp} F_{u,gp}}{3.09\,kip/in \times 1} = \frac{(0.57\,in) \times (65\,ksi) \le (0.25\,in) \times (65\,ksi)}{(3.09\,kip/in) \times (1)} = 5.2589 [math]

Longitud efectiva de soldadura

[math] L_{w} = 2 \left[ L_{gp} – 2 W \right] = 2 \times \left[ (15.5\,in) – 2 \times (0.1875\,in) \right] = 30.25\,in [math]

Forces on the weld

The moment becomes a normal force using the plastic section of two weld lines, [mathin] L_{w}^{2}/8 [mathin]. Con [mathin] V_{b} = 0 [mathin]:

[math] V_{b,total} = \frac{8\, M_{b}}{L_{w}} + V_{b} = \frac{8 \times (19.139\,kip{\cdot}ft)}{(30.25\,in)} + (0\,kip) = 60.74\,kip [math]

[math] R = \sqrt{V_{b,total}^{2} + H_{b}^{2}} = \sqrt{(60.74\,kip)^{2} + (25.519\,kip)^{2}} = 65.883\,kip \qquad \theta = \tan^{-1}\left| \frac{60.74}{25.519} \right| = 67.211^{\circ} [math]

At the other end of the weld the normal force is [mathin] |V_{b} – 8 M_{b}/L_{w}| = 60.74\,kip [mathin], asi que [mathin] R_{min} = 65.883\,kip [mathin] too. Parte del manual AISC 13 applies a 1.25 weld ductility factor to the average of the two ends:

[math] R_{w} = \max\left( R,\, 1.25\, \frac{R + R_{min}}{2} \right) = \max\left( (65.883\,kip),\, 1.25 \times \frac{(65.883\,kip) + (65.883\,kip)}{2} \right) = 82.354\,kip [math]

Porque [mathin] V_{b} = 0 [mathin], the moment loads both ends equally (one in tension, one in compression), y [mathin] R_{w} [mathin] is simply [mathin] 1.25 R [mathin].

Fuerza de soldadura (Eq. J2-4)

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi\, 0.6\, F_{EXX} \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \left( W \le \frac{D_{max}}{16} \right) \left[ 1 + 0.5 \left( \sin\theta \right)^{1.5} \right] L_{w} [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = (0.75) \times 0.6 \times (70\,ksi) \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \times \left( (0.1875\,in) \le \frac{(5.2589)}{(16)} \right) \times \left[ 1 + 0.5 \times (\sin(67.211^{\circ}))^{1.5} \right] \times (30.25\,in) = 182.25\,kip [math]

DCR = 82.354 kip / 182.25 salto = 0.452 < 1.0, OK

Nearly all of the weld force comes from the Special Case 2 momento. sin eso, the weld would only see the 25.519 kip horizontal force.

Paso 13: Gusset in shear yielding along the beam (AISC 360-16 J4.2)

La fuerza horizontal [mathin] H_{b} [mathin] shears the gusset along its welded edge. Con [mathin] A_{gv} = 15.5 \times 0.5 = 7.75\,in^{2} [mathin] y [mathin] \phi = 1 [mathin] (Guía de diseño 29 Ejemplo 5.3):

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi\, 0.6\, F_{y,gp} A_{gv} = (1) \times 0.6 \times (50\,ksi) \times (7.75\,in^{2}) = 232.5\,kip [math]

DCR = 25.519 kip / 232.5 salto = 0.110 < 1.0, OK

Paso 14: Gusset in tension yielding along the beam (AISC 360-16 J4.1)

The moment puts one end of the gusset’s welded edge in tension. Following Design Guide 29 Ejemplo 5.3, the normal force and the moment are added as stresses on the edge and turned back into an equivalent force over the full 15.5 de largo:

[math] N_{e} = \left| V_{b} \right| + \frac{4 \left| M_{b} \right|}{L_{gp}} = (0\,kip) + \frac{4 \times (19.139\,kip{\cdot}ft)}{(15.5\,in)} = 59.27\,kip [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi\, F_{y,gp}\, t_{gp}\, L_{gp} = (0.9) \times (50\,ksi) \times (0.5\,in) \times (15.5\,in) = 348.75\,kip [math]

DCR = 59.27 kip / 348.75 salto = 0.170 < 1.0, OK

Paso 15: Beam web under the gusset (AISC 360-16 J10.3, J10.2)

The compression half of the gusset moment pushes on the beam flange next to the column, so the beam web there can cripple or yield locally. The gusset sits at the end of the beam, so the near-end forms of the equations apply.

The report applies half the peak normal force, [mathin] 60.74/2 = 30.37\,kip [mathin], over half the gusset length, [mathin] l_{b} = 7.75\,in [mathin]. That models the compression side of the moment couple. Con [mathin] \phi = 0.75 [mathin], [mathin] l_{b}/d = 0.43 > 0.2 [mathin] y [mathin] Q_{f} = 1 [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n,wlc} = \phi\, 0.4\, t_{w}^{2} \left[ 1 + \left( \frac{4 l_{b}}{d} – 0.2 \right) \left( \frac{t_{w}}{t_{f}} \right)^{1.5} \right] \sqrt{\frac{E\, F_{y}\, t_{f}}{t_{w}}}\, Q_{f} [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,wlc} = (0.75) \times 0.4 \times (0.355\,in)^{2} \times \left[ 1 + \left( \frac{4 \times (7.75\,in)}{(18\,in)} – 0.2 \right) \times \left( \frac{(0.355\,in)}{(0.57\,in)} \right)^{1.5} \right] \times \sqrt{\frac{(29000\,ksi) \times (50\,ksi) \times (0.57\,in)}{(0.355\,in)}} \times (1) = 100.85\,kip [math]

Web local yielding near the member end (Eq. J10-3), con [mathin] \phi = 1 [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n,wly} = \phi\, F_{y}\, t_{w} \left( 2.5\, k_{des} + l_{b} \right) = (1) \times (50\,ksi) \times (0.355\,in) \times \left( 2.5 \times (0.972\,in) + (7.75\,in) \right) = 180.69\,kip [math]

DCR = 30.37 kip / 100.85 salto = 0.301 < 1.0, OK

The report labels the crippling equation J10-4, but the numbers it substitutes are the near-end form with 0.4 y (4lb/d − 0.2), which is Eq. J10-5b. That is the right form for a force this close to the beam end.

Paso 16: Detailing limits of the gusset single plate (AISC 360-16 J3.3, J3.4, J3.5)

The gusset bolts to a 3/8 in plate welded to the column flange. The plate has horizontal short slots, which add 1/8 in to the minimum edge distance across the slot (Tabla J3.5).

Vertical brace connection design example single plate detail: 3/8 in A36 gusset single plates with four 1 in bolts at 3 in and 1/4 in E70XX fillet welds to the column flange, y un 1/2 en grado A572 50 beam single plate with two lines of five bolts at 3 ien y5/16 in welds, all with horizontal short slotted holes

Single plate detail. The gusset plates take four bolts in one line, and the beam plate takes two lines of five. All three plates have horizontal short slots.

Límite de detalles Límite (in) Actual (in) DCR Resultado
Distancia mínima entre filas de tornillos 2.667 3.000 0.889 PASAR
Distancia máxima entre filas de tornillos 6.000 3.000 0.500 PASAR
Distancia mínima al borde vertical de la placa 1.250 1.500 0.833 PASAR
Distancia mínima al borde horizontal de la placa (HSSL) 1.375 1.500 0.917 PASAR
Gusset minimum horizontal edge distance 1.250 1.500 0.833 PASAR
Minimum plate depth 7.750 12.000 0.646 PASAR

The minimum plate depth is half the 15.5 in gusset edge on the column, so the plate supports at least half the gusset.

DCR = 1.375 / 1.5 = 0.917 < 1.0, OK

Paso 17: Gusset-to-column bolt group (AISC 360-16 J3.8, Parte del manual AISC 7)

The four bolts carry [mathin] V_{c} [mathin] y [mathin] H_{c} [mathin] juntos, at an eccentricity from the weld line. The instantaneous center of rotation method gives the coefficient C: the number of bolts the eccentric group is worth.

The resultant and its angle from vertical:

[math] R = \sqrt{V_{c}^{2} + H_{c}^{2}} = \sqrt{(43.841\,kip)^{2} + (18.321\,kip)^{2}} = 47.515\,kip \qquad \theta = \tan^{-1}\left( \frac{18.321}{43.841} \right) = 22.681^{\circ} [math]

The eccentricity is the distance from the weld to the bolt line, [mathin] e = 2.25\,in [mathin]. For bolts at (0, 0), (0, 3), (0, 6) y (0, 9), the iteration puts the instantaneous center at [mathin] x_{ic} = -4.0517\,in [mathin], [mathin] y_{ic} = 6.7655\,in [mathin], que da [mathin] C = 3.14 [mathin] and the moment coefficient [mathin] C’ = 11.256\,in [mathin]. Each bolt is slip-critical, con [mathin] N_{s} = 1 [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi\, \mu\, D_{u}\, h_{f}\, T_{b}\, N_{s}\, C = (0.85) \times (0.3) \times (1.13) \times (1) \times (64\,kip) \times (1) \times (3.14) = 57.907\,kip [math]

DCR = 47.515 kip / 57.907 salto = 0.821 < 1.0, OK

The slots are horizontal and the resultant leans 22.7° toward them, so the report keeps φ = 0.85 for slotted holes. Bolt slip is the highest check on the gusset side.

Paso 18: Ductility of the gusset single plate (Parte del manual AISC 10)

A single plate has to yield in flexure before the bolts shear off, so the plate cannot be too thick. Parte del manual AISC 10 (Eq. 10-3 y 10-4) gives the maximum thickness from the moment the bolt group can carry.

Con [mathin] F_{nv} = 68\,ksi [mathin], [mathin] d_{b} = 1\,in [mathin], [mathin] C’ = 11.256\,in [mathin], [mathin] F_{y} = 36\,ksi [mathin] y [mathin] h = 12\,in [mathin]:

[math] M_{max} = \frac{F_{nv}}{0.90} \frac{\pi d_{b}^{2}}{4} C’ = \frac{(68\,ksi)}{0.90} \times \frac{\pi \times (1\,in)^{2}}{4} \times (11.256\,in) = 55.664\,kip{\cdot}ft [math]

[math] t_{max} = \frac{6\, M_{max}}{F_{y}\, h^{2}} = \frac{6 \times (55.664\,kip{\cdot}ft)}{(36\,ksi) \times (12\,in)^{2}} = 0.77311\,in [math]

DCR = 0.375 in / 0.77311 en = 0.485 < 1.0, OK

Paso 19: Bolt bearing on the gusset single plate (AISC 360-16 J3.10)

The plate is checked for bearing and tear-out in each direction of load separately, then for both together. Each strength is the average per bolt multiplied by C, so it matches the bolt group’s capacity.

Vertical (el cortante) dirección

The vertical hole size is the standard 1.125 in, asi que [mathin] l_{c1} = 0.9375\,in [mathin] y [mathin] l_{c2} = 1.875\,in [mathin]. Con [mathin] t = 0.375\,in [mathin], [mathin] F_{u} = 58\,ksi [mathin] y [mathin] n_{r} = 4 [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n,v} = \phi \left[ \min\left(1.2\, l_{c1},\, 2.4\, d_{b}\right) t F_{u} + \min\left(1.2\, l_{c2},\, 2.4\, d_{b}\right) t F_{u} \left( n_{r} – 1 \right) \right] \frac{C}{n_{r}} [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,v} = (0.75) \times \left[ \min\left(1.125,\, 2.4\right) \times (0.375\,in) \times (58\,ksi) + \min\left(2.25,\, 2.4\right) \times (0.375\,in) \times (58\,ksi) \times ((4) – 1) \right] \times \frac{(3.14)}{(4)} = 100.84\,kip [math]

DCR = 43.841 kip / 100.84 salto = 0.435 < 1.0, OK

Horizontal (axiales) dirección

Across the slot the hole is 1.3125 in long, asi que [mathin] l_{c1} = 1.5 – 1.3125/2 = 0.84375\,in [mathin]. There is one bolt line, so the inner-bolt term is multiplied by [mathin] (n_{c} – 1) = 0 [mathin] and its negative [mathin] l_{c2} = -1.3125\,in [mathin] has no effect:

[math] \phi R_{n,a} = \phi \left[ \min\left(1.2\, l_{c1},\, 2.4\, d_{b}\right) t F_{u} + \min\left(1.2\, l_{c2},\, 2.4\, d_{b}\right) t F_{u} \left( n_{c} – 1 \right) \right] \frac{C}{n_{c}} [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,a} = (0.75) \times \left[ \min\left(1.0125,\, 2.4\right) \times (0.375\,in) \times (58\,ksi) + 0 \right] \times \frac{(3.14)}{(1)} = 51.862\,kip [math]

DCR = 18.321 kip / 51.862 salto = 0.353 < 1.0, OK

Interacción

[math] \left( \frac{V_{c}}{\phi R_{n,v}} \right)^{2} + \left( \frac{H_{c}}{\phi R_{n,a}} \right)^{2} = \left( \frac{(43.841\,kip)}{(100.84\,kip)} \right)^{2} + \left( \frac{(18.321\,kip)}{(51.862\,kip)} \right)^{2} = 0.31381 [math]

DCR = 0.314 < 1.0, OK

Paso 20: Bolt bearing on the gusset at the column (AISC 360-16 J3.10)

The same three checks apply to the 1/2 en refuerzo, que tiene agujeros estándar.

Vertical (el cortante) dirección

El 12 in plate is centred on the 15.5 in gusset edge, so the gusset’s end distance is [mathin] L_{ev} = (15.5 – 12)/2 + 1.5 = 3.25\,in [mathin] y [mathin] l_{c1} = 2.6875\,in [mathin]. Con [mathin] t = 0.5\,in [mathin] y [mathin] F_{u} = 65\,ksi [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n,v} = (0.75) \times \left[ \min\left(3.225,\, 2.4\right) \times (0.5\,in) \times (65\,ksi) + \min\left(2.25,\, 2.4\right) \times (0.5\,in) \times (65\,ksi) \times ((4) – 1) \right] \times \frac{(3.14)}{(4)} = 175.08\,kip [math]

DCR = 43.841 kip / 175.08 salto = 0.250 < 1.0, OK

Horizontal (axiales) dirección

Con el 1.5 in edge and the standard hole, [mathin] l_{c1} = 0.9375\,in [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n,a} = (0.75) \times \left[ \min\left(1.125,\, 2.4\right) \times (0.5\,in) \times (65\,ksi) + 0 \right] \times \frac{(3.14)}{(1)} = 86.105\,kip [math]

DCR = 18.321 kip / 86.105 salto = 0.213 < 1.0, OK

[math] \left( \frac{(43.841\,kip)}{(175.08\,kip)} \right)^{2} + \left( \frac{(18.321\,kip)}{(86.105\,kip)} \right)^{2} = 0.10798 [math]

DCR = 0.108 < 1.0, OK

Paso 21: Block shear of the gusset single plate (AISC 360-16 J4.3)

A block can tear out of the plate under the vertical force, under the horizontal force, o bajo ambos. The vertical case is an L-shaped block down the bolt line. The horizontal case has two shapes, L and U, and the weaker governs.

The tension leg crosses half a slotted hole, [mathin] d_{h} = 1.3125\,in [mathin]:

The L pattern tears in tension along the bolt line and shears across the top. The shear leg runs from the bolt to the unbraced end of the plate, [mathin] b_{sp} – L_{b,sp} = 3.75 – 2.25 = 1.5\,in [mathin]:

[math] A_{nt} = (0.375\,in) \times \left[ 3 \times (3\,in) + (1.5\,in) – 3.5 \times (1.1875\,in) \right] = 2.3789\,in^{2} \quad A_{gv} = 0.5625\,in^{2} \quad A_{nv} = 0.30469\,in^{2} [math]

The U pattern tears in tension between the outer bolts and shears out at the top and bottom:

[math] A_{nt} = (0.375\,in) \times \left[ 3 \times (3\,in) – 3 \times (1.1875\,in) \right] = 2.0391\,in^{2} \quad A_{gv} = 2 \times (0.375\,in) \times (1.5\,in) = 1.125\,in^{2} \quad A_{nv} = 0.60938\,in^{2} [math]

Paso 22: Block shear of the gusset at the column (AISC 360-16 J4.3)

The same patterns apply to the gusset, with its 3.25 in end distance.

[math] A_{nt} = (0.5\,in) \times \left[ (1.5\,in) – 0.5 \times ((1.3125\,in) + (0.0625\,in)) \right] = 0.40625\,in^{2} [math]

[math] A_{gv} = (0.5\,in) \times \left[ (3.25\,in) + 3 \times (3\,in) \right] = 6.125\,in^{2} \qquad A_{nv} = (0.5\,in) \times \left[ (15.5\,in) – (3.25\,in) – 3.5 \times (1.1875\,in) \right] = 4.0469\,in^{2} [math]

DCR = 43.841 kip / 138.18 salto = 0.317 < 1.0, OK

The tension area uses the plate’s 1.3125 in slot length rather than the gusset’s 1.125 in standard hole. That removes a little more area than the gusset actually loses, so the result is slightly conservative.

Paso 23: Gusset single plate in shear (AISC 360-16 J4.2)

The plate carries [mathin] V_{c} [mathin] as shear over its 12 in depth. It is checked for yielding on the gross section and rupture through the bolt holes.

[math] \phi R_{n,sy} = \phi\, 0.6\, F_{y} A_{gv} = (1) \times 0.6 \times (36\,ksi) \times (4.5\,in^{2}) = 97.2\,kip [math]

[math] A_{nv} = t \left[ h_{sp} – n_{r} \left( d_{h} + 0.0625\,in \right) \right] = (0.375\,in) \times \left[ (12\,in) – (4) \times (1.1875\,in) \right] = 2.7188\,in^{2} [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,sr} = \phi\, 0.6\, F_{u} A_{nv} = (0.75) \times 0.6 \times (58\,ksi) \times (2.7188\,in^{2}) = 70.959\,kip [math]

Paso 24: Gusset single plate in flexure (Parte del manual AISC 9, AISC 360-16 F11)

The vertical force acts at the bolt line, 2.25 desde la soldadura, so the plate bends. The report treats the plate like a double coped beam: a rectangular section that can buckle laterally over its unbraced length [mathin] L_{b,sp} = 2.25\,in [mathin].

The slenderness ratio [mathin] L_{b} d / t^{2} = 2.25 \times 12 / 0.375^{2} = 192 [mathin] falls between [mathin] 0.08E/F_{y} = 64.444 [mathin] y [mathin] 1.9E/F_{y} = 1530.6 [mathin], entonces ecuación. Se aplica F11-2. Con [mathin] Z = 13.5\,in^{3} [mathin], [mathin] S = 9\,in^{3} [mathin] and the cope depth taken as zero (Ecuación manual AISC. 9-15):

[math] C_{b} = \left[ 3 + \ln\left( \frac{L_{b,sp}}{h_{sp}} \right) \right] \left( 1 – \frac{d_{c,sp}}{h_{sp}} \right) \ge 1.84 = \left[ 3 + \ln\left( \frac{(2.25\,in)}{(12\,in)} \right) \right] \times (1 – 0) \ge 1.84 = 1.84 [math]

[math] \phi M_{n} = \phi \left[ C_{b} \left[ 1.52 – 0.274 \left( \frac{L_{b} d}{t^{2}} \right) \left( \frac{F_{y}}{E} \right) \right] F_{y} S \le F_{y} Z \right] = (0.9) \times \left[ (1.84) \times \left[ 1.52 – 0.274 \times (192) \times \frac{(36\,ksi)}{(29000\,ksi)} \right] \times (36\,ksi) \times (9\,in^{3}) \le (36\,ksi) \times (13.5\,in^{3}) \right] = 36.45\,kip{\cdot}ft [math]

[math] \phi V_{n,y} = \frac{\phi M_{n}}{L_{b,sp}} = \frac{(36.45\,kip{\cdot}ft)}{(2.25\,in)} = 194.4\,kip [math]

Flexural rupture uses the net plastic modulus through the holes (Tabla Manual AISC 15-3):

[math] Z_{net} = \frac{t\, h^{2}}{4} – t \left( d_{h} + 0.0625\,in \right) s_{r} \left\lfloor \frac{n_{r}^{2}}{4} \right\rfloor – \left[ n_{r}\ \text{odd} \right] \frac{t \left( d_{h} + 0.0625\,in \right)^{2}}{4} = 8.1563\,in^{3} [math]

[math] \phi M_{n} = \phi\, F_{u}\, Z_{net} = (0.75) \times (58\,ksi) \times (8.1563\,in^{3}) = 29.566\,kip{\cdot}ft \qquad \phi V_{n,r} = \frac{(29.566\,kip{\cdot}ft)}{(2.25\,in)} = 157.69\,kip [math]

DCR = 43.841 kip / 157.69 salto = 0.278 < 1.0, OK

The plate is short and deep, so lateral-torsional buckling does not reduce it. The F11-2 value is capped at the plastic moment [mathin] F_{y} Z [mathin].

Paso 25: Gusset single plate in tension, with interaction (AISC 360-16 J4.1, H1)

When the brace pulls, [mathin] H_{c} [mathin] puts the plate in tension.

[math] \phi R_{n,ty} = (0.9) \times (36\,ksi) \times (0.375\,in) \times (12\,in) = 145.8\,kip [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,tr} = (0.75) \times (58\,ksi) \times (0.375\,in) \times \left[ (12\,in) – (4) \times (1.1875\,in) \right] = 118.27\,kip [math]

DCR = 18.321 kip / 118.27 salto = 0.155 < 1.0, OK

The plate carries tension, bending and shear at the same time. Since the axial ratio is below 0.2, the report uses the AISC H1-1b form for axial plus flexure, then adds the squared shear ratio:

[math] \left( \frac{H_{c}}{2\, \phi R_{n}} + \frac{V_{c}}{\phi V_{n}} \right)^{2} + \left( \frac{V_{c}}{\phi R_{n,v}} \right)^{2} = \left( \frac{(18.321\,kip)}{2 \times (118.27\,kip)} + \frac{(43.841\,kip)}{(194.4\,kip)} \right)^{2} + \left( \frac{(43.841\,kip)}{(70.959\,kip)} \right)^{2} = 0.47351 [math]

DCR = 0.474 < 1.0, OK

The flexure term uses the 194.4 kip from flexural yielding, no el 157.69 kip from rupture that governed Step 24.

Paso 26: Gusset single plate in compression, with interaction (AISC 360-16 J4.4, H1)

When the brace pushes, the plate is in compression. Con [mathin] K = 1.2 [mathin] y [mathin] L = 2.25\,in [mathin], [mathin] KL/r = 24.942 \le 25 [mathin], so it does not buckle and Eq. Se aplica J4-6:

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi\, F_{y}\, t\, h_{sp} = (0.9) \times (36\,ksi) \times (0.375\,in) \times (12\,in) = 145.8\,kip [math]

DCR = 18.321 kip / 145.8 salto = 0.126 < 1.0, OK

[math] \left( \frac{(18.321\,kip)}{2 \times (145.8\,kip)} + \frac{(43.841\,kip)}{(194.4\,kip)} \right)^{2} + \left( \frac{(43.841\,kip)}{(70.959\,kip)} \right)^{2} = 0.46486 [math]

DCR = 0.465 < 1.0, OK

Paso 27: Weld size at the gusset single plate (Parte del manual AISC 10)

Two checks on weld size. The weld has to fit in the 0.75 in setback, and it has to be strong enough to develop the plate, so that the plate yields before the weld breaks. Página del Manual AISC 10-87 sets the second at 5/8 del espesor de la placa:

[math] DCR_{clr} = \frac{(0.25)}{(0.75)} = 0.333 \qquad W_{duc} = \frac{5}{8}\, t_{sp} = \frac{5}{8} \times (0.375\,in) = 0.23438\,in [math]

DCR = 0.23438 in / 0.25 en = 0.938 < 1.0, OK

Paso 28: Gusset single plate weld to the column (AISC 360-16 J2.4)

The plate is welded to the column flange on both faces. The weld carries the same resultant as the bolts, 47.515 kip at 22.681° from its axis.

[math] D_{max} = \frac{\frac{t_{sp}}{2} F_{u,sp} \le t_{f,c} F_{u,c}}{3.09\,kip/in} = \frac{(0.1875\,in) \times (58\,ksi) \le (0.71\,in) \times (65\,ksi)}{(3.09\,kip/in) \times (1)} = 3.5194 [math]

[math] L_{w} = 2 \left[ h_{sp} – 2W \right] = 2 \times \left[ (12\,in) – 2 \times (0.25\,in) \right] = 23\,in [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = (0.75) \times 0.6 \times (70\,ksi) \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \times \left( (0.25\,in) \le \frac{(3.5194)}{(16)} \right) \times \left[ 1 + 0.5 \times (\sin(22.681^{\circ}))^{1.5} \right] \times (23\,in) = 126.18\,kip [math]

DCR = 47.515 kip / 126.18 salto = 0.377 < 1.0, OK

El 3/8 in A36 plate limits the weld here: [mathin] 3.5194/16 = 0.22\,in [mathin], tan solo 0.22 in of the 1/4 en recuentos de soldadura. A bigger weld would add nothing without a thicker plate.

Paso 29: Column web under the gusset force (AISC 360-16 J10.3, J10.2)

[mathin] H_{c} [mathin] pushes or pulls on the column flange over the 12 en plato. Con [mathin] l_{b} = 12\,in [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n,wlc} = (0.75) \times 0.8 \times (0.44\,in)^{2} \times \left[ 1 + 3 \times \left( \frac{(12\,in)}{(14\,in)} \right) \times \left( \frac{(0.44\,in)}{(0.71\,in)} \right)^{1.5} \right] \times \sqrt{\frac{(29000\,ksi) \times (50\,ksi) \times (0.71\,in)}{(0.44\,in)}} \times (1) = 400.58\,kip [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,wly} = (1) \times (50\,ksi) \times (0.44\,in) \times \left( 5 \times (1.31\,in) + (12\,in) \right) = 408.1\,kip [math]

DCR = 18.321 kip / 400.58 salto = 0.046 < 1.0, OK

Paso 30: Detailing limits of the beam single plate (AISC 360-16 J3.3, J3.4, J3.5)

The beam connection is a 1/2 in single plate with two bolt lines of five, welded to the column flange. The plate has horizontal short slots, and the beam web has standard holes. Its layout is in the single plate detail under Step 16.

Límite de detalles Límite (in) Actual (in) DCR Resultado

Minimum plate depth 7.750 15.000 0.517 PASAR
Maximum plate depth 16.000 15.000 0.938 PASAR

The plate depth limits keep the plate between the beam fillets. The maximum is about the beam depth less [mathin] 2 k_{des} [mathin], and the minimum is half the web’s T dimension (Parte del manual AISC 10).

DCR = 15 / 16 = 0.938 < 1.0, OK

Paso 31: Beam-to-column bolt group (AISC 360-16 J3.8, Parte del manual AISC 7)

The ten bolts carry the beam shear and the 150.32 kip axial force together, at an eccentricity from the weld. This is the most heavily loaded part of the connection.

[math] R = \sqrt{V_{total}^{2} + T_{total}^{2}} = \sqrt{(38\,kip)^{2} + (150.32\,kip)^{2}} = 155.05\,kip \qquad \theta = \tan^{-1}\left( \frac{150.32}{38} \right) = 75.813^{\circ} [math]

The eccentricity is [mathin] e = 3.75\,in [mathin], from the weld to the centroid of the two bolt lines. With bolts at x = 0 y 3 in and y = 0, 3, 6, 9 y 12 in, the instantaneous center is at [mathin] x_{ic} = -0.42058\,in [mathin], [mathin] y_{ic} = 14.882\,in [mathin], donación [mathin] C = 8.63 [mathin] y [mathin] C’ = 38.669\,in [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi\, \mu\, D_{u}\, h_{f}\, T_{b}\, N_{s}\, C = (0.85) \times (0.3) \times (1.13) \times (1) \times (64\,kip) \times (1) \times (8.63) = 159.15\,kip [math]

DCR = 155.05 kip / 159.15 salto = 0.974 < 1.0, OK

Esta es la verificación que rige toda la conexión.. The load is mostly axial, at 75.8° from vertical, so it runs along the horizontal slots, and that is why φ = 0.85 applies here. The resultant is far from the bolt group’s centroid line, but because it is nearly axial the eccentricity costs little: C = 8.63 out of 10 tornillos.

Paso 32: Ductility of the beam single plate (Parte del manual AISC 10)

Con [mathin] C’ = 38.669\,in [mathin], [mathin] F_{y} = 50\,ksi [mathin] y [mathin] h = 15\,in [mathin]:

El informe utiliza [mathin] U_{bs} = 0.5 [mathin] aquí. With two bolt lines, the line nearer the edge takes more of the tension than the other, so the stress on the tension plane is not uniform. El AISC 360-16 Commentary to J4.3 gives 0.5 for that case.

When the beam is pulled away from the column, a block of the web can tear out around the bolts: tension between the top and bottom rows, and shear along the top and bottom rows to the end of the beam. This is a C (or U) patrón.

[math] A_{nt} = t_{w} \left[ (n_{r}-1)\, s_{r} – (n_{r} – 1) \left( d_{h} + 0.0625\,in \right) \right] = (0.355\,in) \times \left[ 4 \times (3\,in) – 4 \times ((1.125\,in) + (0.0625\,in)) \right] = 2.5737\,in^{2} [math]

[math] A_{gv} = 2\, t_{w} \left[ L_{eh} + (n_{c}-1)\, s_{c} \right] = 2 \times (0.355\,in) \times \left[ (1.5\,in) + (3\,in) \right] = 3.195\,in^{2} [math]

[math] A_{nv} = 2\, t_{w} \left[ (n_{c}-1)\, s_{c} + L_{eh} – (n_{c} – 0.5) \left( d_{h} + 0.0625\,in \right) \right] = 2 \times (0.355\,in) \times \left[ (3\,in) + (1.5\,in) – 1.5 \times (1.1875\,in) \right] = 1.9303\,in^{2} [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = (0.75) \times \left( 0.6 \times (65\,ksi) \times (1.9303\,in^{2}) + (1) \times (65\,ksi) \times (2.5737\,in^{2}) \le 0.6 \times (50\,ksi) \times (3.195\,in^{2}) + (1) \times (65\,ksi) \times (2.5737\,in^{2}) \right) = 181.93\,kip [math]

DCR = 150.32 kip / 181.93 salto = 0.826 < 1.0, OK

This is the second-highest check in the connection. The thin 0.355 en la web, no el 1/2 en plato, is the weak part in axial block shear.

Paso 37: Beam single plate in shear (AISC 360-16 J4.2)

[math] \phi R_{n,sy} = (1) \times 0.6 \times (50\,ksi) \times (15\,in \times 0.5\,in) = 225\,kip [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,sr} = (0.75) \times 0.6 \times (65\,ksi) \times (0.5\,in) \times \left[ (15\,in) – (5) \times (1.1875\,in) \right] = 132.54\,kip [math]

DCR = 38 kip / 132.54 salto = 0.287 < 1.0, OK

Paso 38: Beam single plate in flexure (Parte del manual AISC 9, AISC 360-16 F11)

As in Step 24, con [mathin] L_{b,sp} = 2.25\,in [mathin], [mathin] h = 15\,in [mathin] y [mathin] t = 0.5\,in [mathin]. aquí [mathin] L_{b} d / t^{2} = 135 [mathin], between 46.4 y 1102, so F11-2 applies with [mathin] Z = 28.125\,in^{3} [mathin], [mathin] S = 18.75\,in^{3} [mathin] y [mathin] C_{b} = 1.84 [mathin]:

[math] \phi M_{n} = (0.9) \times \left[ (1.84) \times \left[ 1.52 – 0.274 \times (135) \times \frac{(50\,ksi)}{(29000\,ksi)} \right] \times (50\,ksi) \times (18.75\,in^{3}) \le (50\,ksi) \times (28.125\,in^{3}) \right] = 105.47\,kip{\cdot}ft \qquad \phi V_{n,y} = \frac{(105.47\,kip{\cdot}ft)}{(2.25\,in)} = 562.5\,kip [math]

[math] Z_{net} = \frac{(0.5\,in) \times (15\,in)^{2}}{4} – (0.5\,in) \times (1.1875\,in) \times (3\,in) \times \left\lfloor \frac{5^{2}}{4} \right\rfloor – \frac{(0.5\,in) \times (1.1875\,in)^{2}}{4} = 17.261\,in^{3} [math]

[math] \phi M_{n} = (0.75) \times (65\,ksi) \times (17.261\,in^{3}) = 70.124\,kip{\cdot}ft \qquad \phi V_{n,r} = \frac{(70.124\,kip{\cdot}ft)}{(2.25\,in)} = 373.99\,kip [math]

DCR = 38 kip / 373.99 salto = 0.102 < 1.0, OK

Paso 39: Beam single plate in tension, with interaction (AISC 360-16 J4.1, H1)

[math] \phi R_{n,ty} = (0.9) \times (50\,ksi) \times (0.5\,in) \times (15\,in) = 337.5\,kip [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,tr} = (0.75) \times (65\,ksi) \times (0.5\,in) \times \left[ (15\,in) – (5) \times (1.1875\,in) \right] = 220.9\,kip [math]

DCR = 150.32 kip / 220.9 salto = 0.681 < 1.0, OK

The axial ratio is 0.68, encima 0.2, so the interaction switches to the H1-1a form with 8/9 on the flexure term:

[math] \left( \frac{T_{total}}{\phi R_{n}} + \frac{8\, V_{total}}{9\, \phi V_{n}} \right)^{2} + \left( \frac{V_{total}}{\phi R_{n,v}} \right)^{2} = \left( \frac{(150.32\,kip)}{(220.9\,kip)} + \frac{8 \times (38\,kip)}{9 \times (562.5\,kip)} \right)^{2} + \left( \frac{(38\,kip)}{(132.54\,kip)} \right)^{2} = 0.63062 [math]

DCR = 0.631 < 1.0, OK

As on the gusset side, the flexure term uses the yield-based 562.5 kip rather than the 373.99 kip from rupture.

Paso 40: Beam single plate in compression, with interaction (AISC 360-16 J4.4, H1)

Con [mathin] K = 1.2 [mathin] y [mathin] L = 2.25\,in [mathin], [mathin] KL/r = 18.706 \le 25 [mathin], entonces ecuación. Se aplica J4-6:

[math] \phi R_{n} = (0.9) \times (50\,ksi) \times (0.5\,in) \times (15\,in) = 337.5\,kip [math]

DCR = 150.32 kip / 337.5 salto = 0.445 < 1.0, OK

[math] \left( \frac{(150.32\,kip)}{(337.5\,kip)} + \frac{8 \times (38\,kip)}{9 \times (562.5\,kip)} \right)^{2} + \left( \frac{(38\,kip)}{(132.54\,kip)} \right)^{2} = 0.33768 [math]

DCR = 0.338 < 1.0, OK

Paso 41: Beam in tension rupture (AISC 360-16 D3, J4.1)

When the beam is pulled, only its web is bolted, so the flanges have to shed their share of the force into the web. Treating the half section either side of the web as a channel (Tabla D3.1, Caso 2), [mathin] \bar{x} = 1.1395\,in [mathin] over a connection length of 3 in gives [mathin] U = 0.62033 [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n} = \phi\, F_{u}\, U \left[ A_{bm} – n_{r} \left( d_{h} + 0.0625\,in \right) t_{w} \right] = (0.75) \times (65\,ksi) \times (0.62033) \times \left[ (14.7\,in^{2}) – (5) \times (1.1875\,in) \times (0.355\,in) \right] = 380.8\,kip [math]

DCR = 150.32 kip / 380.8 salto = 0.395 < 1.0, OK

Paso 42: Weld size at the beam single plate (Parte del manual AISC 10)

[math] DCR_{clr} = \frac{(0.3125)}{(0.75)} = 0.417 \qquad W_{duc} = \frac{5}{8} \times (0.5\,in) = 0.3125\,in [math]

DCR = 0.3125 in / 0.3125 en = 1.000, OK

El 5/16 in weld is exactly the size needed to develop the 1/2 en plato. Any smaller and the weld could fail before the plate yields.

Paso 43: Beam single plate weld to the column (AISC 360-16 J2.4)

[math] D_{max} = \frac{(0.25\,in) \times (65\,ksi) \le (0.71\,in) \times (65\,ksi)}{(3.09\,kip/in) \times (1)} = 5.2589 \qquad L_{w} = 2 \times \left[ (15\,in) – 2 \times (0.3125\,in) \right] = 28.75\,in [math]

[math] \phi R_{n} = (0.75) \times 0.6 \times (70\,ksi) \times \frac{\sqrt{2}}{2} \times \left( (0.3125\,in) \le \frac{(5.2589)}{(16)} \right) \times \left[ 1 + 0.5 \times (\sin(75.813^{\circ}))^{1.5} \right] \times (28.75\,in) = 295.63\,kip [math]

DCR = 155.05 kip / 295.63 salto = 0.524 < 1.0, OK

The load is nearly perpendicular to the weld, so the directional factor adds about 48% to the weld strength.

Paso 44: Column web under the beam axial force (AISC 360-16 J10.3, J10.2)

El 150.32 kip axial force acts on the column flange over the 15 en plato, con [mathin] l_{b} = 15\,in [mathin]:

[math] \phi R_{n,wlc} = (0.75) \times 0.8 \times (0.44\,in)^{2} \times \left[ 1 + 3 \times \left( \frac{(15\,in)}{(14\,in)} \right) \times \left( \frac{(0.44\,in)}{(0.71\,in)} \right)^{1.5} \right] \times \sqrt{\frac{(29000\,ksi) \times (50\,ksi) \times (0.71\,in)}{(0.44\,in)}} \times (1) = 456.31\,kip [math]

[math] \phi R_{n,wly} = (1) \times (50\,ksi) \times (0.44\,in) \times \left( 5 \times (1.31\,in) + (15\,in) \right) = 474.1\,kip [math]

DCR = 150.32 kip / 456.31 salto = 0.329 < 1.0, OK

The connection passes every check of this vertical brace connection design. The beam-to-column bolt group governs at 0.974, porque el 132 kip transfer force plus the 18.321 kip that each gusset sends to the column all pass through those ten bolts. The beam web in axial block shear is next at 0.826. En el lado del aparato ortopédico, the gusset single plate bolts are highest at 0.821. The two ratios of 1.000 are size rules: the gusset weld is exactly the Table J2.4 minimum, and the beam plate weld is exactly 5/8 del espesor de la placa.

Qué cambiar si falla un cheque

  • Beam-to-column bolt group: agregar una fila de tornillos, use a Class B surface (μ = 0.5 en lugar de 0.3), or use standard holes in the plate where the erection tolerance allows, which raises φ to 1.00.
  • Beam web block shear: add bolt rows to lengthen the tension plane, or increase the edge distance at the beam end. A web doubler is the last resort.
  • Gusset-to-column bolts: add a bolt row or lengthen the gusset on the column, which increases β and also lowers the share of force that goes to the column.
  • Gusset-to-beam weld: lengthen the gusset along the beam, or use the general UFM case so that the beam-to-column connection carries Vb and the gusset weld loses most of its moment.
  • Gusset buckling: use a thicker gusset or move the brace closer to the work point to shorten the 9 in unbraced length.
  • Block shear and bearing at the brace: agregar una fila de tornillos, increase the end distance, o utilice agujeros estándar en el refuerzo.
  • Single plate checks: a thicker plate helps bearing, corte de bloque, shear and tension, but it has to stay under the ductility limit and the weld has to grow to 5/8 of its thickness.
  • Column web: add a pair of stiffeners opposite the beam single plate.

Preguntas frecuentes

What is the Uniform Force Method?

The Uniform Force Method (Parte del manual AISC 13) splits a brace force between the gusset-to-beam and gusset-to-column interfaces so that neither interface carries a moment. It does this by choosing the gusset’s centroids α and β to satisfy α − β tan θ = eb tan θ − ec. The beam-to-column connection then carries whatever horizontal force goes to the column, plus any vertical force at the beam interface.

Why is the vertical force at the beam interface zero?

The report uses Special Case 2 of the Uniform Force Method. It moves the whole vertical force the beam interface would get, 23.556 kip, to the gusset-to-column interface. That keeps the brace’s vertical force out of the beam-to-column connection. The cost is a moment on the gusset-to-beam interface of 23.556 saltar × 9.75 en = 19.139 kip-ft, which the weld and the gusset edge are checked for in Steps 12 a 15.

Why does the beam-to-column connection carry 150.32 kip?

The beam has its own 132 kip transfer force. Encima de eso, each gusset sends Hc = 18.321 kip of horizontal force directly into the column, and the beam has to deliver it back through the beam-to-column connection. The two gussets are on opposite sides of the beam with the same force, so the report adds the larger one, 18.321 kip, donación 150.32 kip.

Why are all the bolts slip-critical?

The gusset has oversized holes at the brace, and both single plates have horizontal short slots. Those holes give the erector room to fit up a braced bay, but AISC 360-16 J3.2 allows them only in slip-critical joints, or for slots, only when the load is perpendicular to the slot. Brace forces also reverse, so a joint that does not slip back and forth performs better.

Why does the beam single plate use Ubs = 0.5 in block shear?

With two bolt lines, the line nearer the edge carries more of the load, so the tension stress on the block is not uniform. El AISC 360-16 Commentary to J4.3 recommends Ubs = 0.5 for that case, which is what the report uses for the vertical block. In the axial direction the tension plane runs along a full bolt line, the stress is uniform, and Ubs = 1.

Why do the two single plates use different interaction equations?

Both follow AISC 360-16 H1. When the axial ratio is below 0.2, Eq. H1-1b halves the axial term. When it is 0.2 or more, Eq. H1-1a takes the axial term in full and multiplies the flexure term by 8/9. The gusset single plate has an axial ratio of 0.155, so it uses H1-1b. The beam single plate has 0.68, so it uses H1-1a. In both cases the squared shear ratio is added.

¿Cómo cambiaría esto para AISC ASD en lugar de LRFD??

Los estados límite y las resistencias nominales son los mismos.. With AISC ASD you compare service-level forces against the nominal strength divided by a safety factor. un factor de resistencia de 0.75 se convierte en un factor de seguridad de 2.00, 0.90 se convierte 1.67, and slip with oversized or slotted holes goes from 0.85 a 1.76. The Uniform Force Method distribution is identical, scaled to the ASD brace force.
