FREE BEAM SPLICE CONNECTION CALCULATOR

SkyCiv Beam Splice Connection Calculator

This beam splice connection calculator checks the flange plates, web plates and bolt group of a splice between W-shaped beams against AISC 360-16, ASD veya LRFD'de.

A beam splice joins two beam segments end to end so a span can run longer than a single rolled length. The connection has to carry the moment, shear and axial force the beam would have carried had it been continuous.

About the Beam Splice Connection Calculator

The calculator works on splices between W-shaped beams joined by bolted flange and web plates. It evaluates strong-axis moment, gerilim, compression and strong-axis shear from the properties of the beams and plates you enter.

Each check comes back as a capacity and a utility ratio, AISC'ye 360-16, ASD veya LRFD'de.

What is a Beam Splice Connection?

A beam splice is a joint between two horizontal members, usually W-shaped or I-beams, that extends their combined length. Bolted flange plates and web plates hold the segments in line and carry load across the joint.

Splicing lets a long beam be fabricated and shipped in lengths that can actually be handled, then made continuous on site. It is common in multi-span building frames and in bridge construction, where the connection has to take axial force, bending moment and shear.

What Components Make Up a Beam Splice Connection?

A bolted beam splice is built from four parts:

  • W-shaped beams: the horizontal members carrying floor or roof load.
  • Flange plates: bolted to the top and bottom flanges to carry bending moment.
  • Web plates: bolted to the web to carry vertical shear.
  • Cıvatalar: the fasteners clamping the plates to the two beam segments.

The plates and bolts move moment, axial force and shear out of one beam segment and into the other, so the two behave as a single member.

Where are Beam Splice Connections Commonly Used?

Splices turn up wherever a beam is longer than what can be rolled, shipped or lifted in one piece:

  • Long-span roof and floor systems that need the beam extended.
  • Highway and railway bridges running continuous over piers.
  • Industrial structures with long-run framing.
  • Crane girders and heavy mechanical support systems.

What Are the Benefits of Beam Splice Connections?

  • Transport and handling: a long beam can be fabricated in shorter sections and joined on site.
  • Continuity: moment and axial load pass across the joint, so the spliced beam acts as one member.
  • Range of actions: the same detail can be designed for moment, gerilim, compression and shear.
  • Code checks: capacities follow AISC 360-16, ASD veya LRFD'de.

How to Use the Beam Splice Connection Calculator

Enter the geometry and the design actions at the splice, then calculate. The inputs are:

  • W-shaped beam properties: section dimensions and material for the beams either side of the splice.
  • Flange plate details: kalınlık, width and material.
  • Web plate details: kalınlık, height and material.
  • Bolt specifications: yazarak karşılık gelen bir yük grubu ekleyeceğiz, diameter and arrangement.
  • Tasarım yükleri: strong-axis moment, gerilim, compression and strong-axis shear.

Press calculate and the tool returns a capacity and a utility ratio for each check, along with a detailed report you can keep with the design file.

Why Choose SkyCiv’s Beam Splice Connection Calculator?

The checks follow AISC 360-16 and run in either ASD or LRFD. Results come back as a utility ratio per check, so an overloaded plate or bolt group is obvious at a glance, and the report shows the capacity behind each number.

It runs in the browser, so there is nothing to install before you can size a splice.

What does the beam splice calculator check?

It checks the flange plates, web plates and bolt group of a W-section splice for strong-axis moment, gerilim, compression and strong-axis shear. Each check returns a capacity and a utility ratio.

The beam sections either side of the splice, the flange and web plate thicknesses, widths and materials, the bolt type, diameter and arrangement, and the design actions at the splice.

AISC 360-16. You can run the checks in either ASD or LRFD.

The applied action divided by the calculated capacity. At or below 1.0 the check passes; yukarıda 1.0 the component is overloaded. The calculator reports one for every check so you can see which part of the splice governs.

W-shaped sections, spliced with plates bolted to the beam flanges and web.

Evet. It evaluates strong-axis moment alongside tension, compression and strong-axis shear, which is what a splice in a multi-span frame or a bridge girder normally has to carry.

Evet. Once the inputs are entered and calculated, it generates a detailed report of the capacities and utility ratios to keep with the design.
