CONTENTS • Introduction • Bolted Connections • Bolts and Bolting • Force Transfer Mechanism • Failure of Connections • In shear • In tension • Combined shear and tension • Block shear
INTRODUCTION • Designed more conservatively than members because they are more • complex to analyse and discrepancy between analysis and design is • large • In case of overloading, failure in member is preferred to failure in • connection • Connections account for more than half the cost of structural steel • work • Connection design has influence over member design • Similar to members, connections are also classified as idealised types • Effected through rivets, bolts or weld • Codal Provisions

BOLTS AND BOLTING Bolt Grade:Grade 4.6 :- fu = 400 N/mm2 and fy = 0.6*400 = 240 N/mm2 Bolt Types: Black, Turned & Fitted, High Strength Friction Grip Black Bolts: usually Gr.4.6, made snug tight, ductile and cheap, only static loads Turned & Fitted; Gr.4.6 to 8.8, Close tolerance drilled holes, 0.2% proof stress HSFG Bolts: Gr.8.8 to 10.9, less ductile, excellent under dynamic/fatigue loads

BEAM-TO-COLUMN CONNECTIONS (a) Simple – transfer only shear at nominal eccentricity Used in non-sway frames with bracings etc. Used in frames upto 5 storeys (b) Semi-rigid – model actual behaviour but make analysis difficult (linear springs or Adv.Analysis). However lead to economy in member designs. (c) Rigid – transfer significant end-moments undergoing negligible deformations. Used in sway frames for stability and contribute in resisting lateral loads and help control sway.

Limit depth and thickness • t < /2 (Gr.8.8) and /3 (Gr.4.6)
