Bolted Connection

Bolted connections with single plate and end plate.

Sizing of bolted connections with single plate and end plate.

The application makes it possible to dimension the screws, the vertical plate welded or screwed into the support element (column), also checks the supported beam core and checks the double fillet weld.

The calculations you need, faster, more reliable and more productive.

The Bolted Connection application stands out in the dimensioning of metallic connections, mainly for its simplicity of use and agility in providing answers.

• All sizing formulas are presented, the Bolted Connection application makes the following checks:

Sizing of bolted connections with single plate

1 - Cutting the screws

2 - Crushing on the plate

3 - Crushing and tearing the beam web

4 - Tear collapse

5 - Collapse by tearing the profile web

6 - Shearing of the plate

7 - Shearing of the profile web

8 - Normal tension on the plate

9 - Greater calculation effort supported by the part

10 - Highest rated load supported by the part
