Numerical Estimation for Initial Stiffness and Ultimate Moment of Top-Seat Angle Connections without Web Angle
This paper develops new models predicting the initial stiffness and ultimate moment of top-seat angle connections without web angle (TSACs). The TSACs, bolted to the beam flange and the column flange, are studied to investigate the effect of the material properties of the angle, gauge distance, angle thickness, angle length, rows of bolts, depth of beam, bolt diameter, and thickness of column flange in their moment-rotation behavior. The finite-element method is used to analyze the nonlinear behavior of TSACs. Identical geometric and material properties with previous experiments by others are utilized to verify finite-element models. A more accurate equation for the initial stiffness is suggested, and good agreement between the proposed model and the various test data is shown. The type of collapse mechanisms for TSACs is established. The ultimate moment capacity modified from Kishi and Chen’s equation also is proposed, and it agrees well with the various test data.
