LATTICE GIRDER JOINTS
EN 1993‐1‐8 gives detailed application rules to determine the static design resistances of uniplanar and multiplanar joints in lattice structures composed of circular, square or rectangular hollow sections. Also, uniplanar joints in lattice structures composed of combinations of hollow sections with open sections are covered to a certain extent. This chapter presents a short introduction to the design of hollow section joints. The design resistance of joints between braces and chords in lattice structures are expressed in terms of design axial and/or moment resistances of the brace members, or, in some cases, in terms of design axial resistances of the chords. The design formulae for CHS chord failure modes are based on the so‐called Ring Model. Due to the unequal stiffness distribution the brace can fail by fracture close to the weld, local yielding or buckling.
