End Plate Shear Connection

The end plate connection is a type of non-moment-transferring connection (slip connection) that is bolted to the body of the profile by welding. Bolt control, weld control and plate control are performed automatically according to the placement of the elements of the connection. Connection design with single plate is made automatically according to the Design, Calculation and Construction Principles of Steel Structures (ÇYTHYEDY) (GKT and YDKT) or AISC 360-16 (ASD and LRFD) regulations and the connection report is generated.

In the end plate connection calculation, distance control between bolts, horizontal and vertical edge distance control, weld thickness control, mounting stability controls are made as geometry control. As strength control, slip on support bolts, crushing in support profile and plate bolt hole, beam and plate slip slip, beam and plate shear failure, plate block slip, weld strength controls are made.
