Portal Frame - Eaves Moment Connection

This document presents the calculation of moment resistance, shear resistance, and weld design for an eaves moment connection in a portal frame. It provides details of the frame members, connection, and design forces. A simplified method is used to calculate moment resistance that avoids calculating resistance of individual bolt groups. The connection uses non-preloaded bolts and is a category A bearing-type bolted connection. Dimensions, material properties, and other data required for the calculations are provided.

Example: Portal frame - eaves moment
connection

This example presents a method for calculating the moment resistance and
the shear resistance of an eaves moment connection, as well as the design of
welds. For the calculation of the moment resistance a simplified
conservative method is used, which makes possible to avoid the calculation
of bolt row groups. The connection is a Category A: Bearing type bolted
connection using non-preloaded bolts.

2.2 Web to end plate weld

Full strength weld can be designed according to the following expression:

Therefore,

2.3 Compression flange welds

Considering that a good contact can be provided, a nominal weld can be
adopted. Haunch flange thickness is 14.6 mm, therefore adopt 6 mm throat
thickness.

the acting force and therefore a stiffener is needed.

The procedure to calculate the compression resistance of the rafter web is the
same as for the column web without a compression stiffener. Detail
calculations are not shown here.
The acting force in the rafter web can be calculated according to the following
acting forces triangle:


kN 283
Ed wb,
= F

Ed wb, Rd wb, c,
kN 283 kN 323 F F = > =
The resistance of the rafter web is greater than the acting force in the rafter
web, therefore OK. If the compression resistance of the rafter web was not
greater than the compression acting force, then a compression stiffener should
be provided as for the column web.
7 Force distribution in bolt rows
SN041 The first condition the effective design tension resistance has to satisfy is:

1 = In this case

mod Rd, wp,

F = < =


Therefore this condition is satisfied and no more redistribution is needed.
The effective design tension resistance also has to satisfy the following:

Rd t, Rd tx,
9 , 1 F F
kN 386 203 9 , 1 9 , 1
Rd t,
= = F
Considering the worst of the possible cases:
kN 386 298
Rd t1,
< = F
Therefore the condition is satisfied and the above mentioned resistances will
be taken as the effective tension resistances of the bolt rows.
