Steel Buildings in Europe

Part 1: Architect’s Guide 1 - 27 End plate welded to the web of the beam and bolted to the column flange Fin plate welded to the column flange and bolted to the web of the beam Double angle web cleats: angles bolted to the column flange and the beam web Figure 4.20 Typical beam-to-column connections – pinned connections Figure 4.21 shows the connection of a secondary beam to a primary beam using double angle web cleats. The secondary beam is notched so that its top flange is at the same level as the top flange of the primary beam. Figure 4.21: Typical beam-to-beam connection Figure 4.22 shows an example of rigid beam-to-column connection. The end plate is welded to the beam and bolted to the column flange. This type of connection is designed to transfer a bending moment and a shear force. Figure 4.22 Moment connection In multi-storey buildings, the column bases are generally nominally pinned, such as that shown in Figure 4.23(a). Significant compression force is
