A total of thirteen full-scale tests were conducted to investigate the compressive behavior and strength of gusset plate connections. The test parameters included gusset plate thickness, size, and brace angle. In addition, the effects of frame action on the compressive behavior of gusset plate ...

The gusset plate connections must accommodate the cyclic end rotation expected in a buckled brace while supporting the expected tensile and compressive capacities of the brace. As a result, current design practice recommends a “2tp” linear geometric offset be used, as illustrated in Fig. 1(a),...
Satisfactory agreement was obtained in comparisons of experimental and numerical results. Premature failures observed suggest that beamto-gusset plate connections could be pinned to accommodate large rotational demands at this location without the need to form plastic hinges. Test results also showed that...
IDEA StatiCa Connection can perform two types of analysis: Geometrically linear analysis with material and contact nonlinearities for stress and strain analysis, Eigenvalue analysis to determine the possibility of buckling.In the case of connections, the geometrically nonlinear analysis is not necessary un...

Interesting item was that there had been a number of repairs over the years of broken webs and split connections (upper and lower) chords that were mickey mouse. Ovisously never reviewed by an engineer or a city inspector. (Trusses installed in the 1950's during the Korean War). During th...
The OpenSees model accounts for the nonlinear response of braces, the deformation and yielding of the gusset plate connections, but also for the hinging of MD-CBF beams at their mid-span, where the brace ends meet. The Giuffre–Menegotto–Pinto steel material (Steel02) is assigned to braces...
