" Shear Tab " connection design locks

A single-plate shear connection can be designed per " Shear Tab " locks for the gusset-to-column interface in a vertical brace-to-beam-&-column framing situation when the beam-to-column connection is a shear plate. The shear plate shop welds to the column and field bolts to the gusset plate, which shop attaches to the beam. On the beam, the shear plates may be set to " Combine... " (not shown). Combined shear plates have only " Vertical to 1st hole " and " Rows " options -- all other options are controlled by connection design locks that are associated with the beam.

(vertical brace, shear plate gusset-to-column connection, to a beam & column) (vertical brace " Section size " = any valid shape) (" Input connection type " = ' Vbrc Plate ' or ' User defined ') (if the beam has a shear plate, the gusset field bolts to the column with a shear plate)
" Shear Tab " (one column of bolts)	" Shear Tab " (two columns of bolts)
