End and base plate joints with corner bolts for rectangular tubular member

This paper considers yield mechanisms for extended end plate joints of rectangular hollow sections. In this paper bolts are considered which are located at the corners of the end plate. In present codes no specific design rules for these kinds of joints in steel and aluminum structures are given. Th...

Description
Summary:This paper considers yield mechanisms for extended end plate joints of rectangular hollow sections. In this paper bolts are considered which are located at the corners of the end plate. In present codes no specific design rules for these kinds of joints in steel and aluminum structures are given. The purpose is to study the reliability of the new yield mechanisms for the component method of the Eurocodes, both for cases with and without prying forces. Proposals for the use of new yield mechanisms are based on tests available in literature. ► New yield mechanisms for end plates ► Corner bolts for end plates ► Enlargement of Eurocodes for corner bolts
