" Stiffener Plate " connection design locks
Beam stiffeners above or below a column with a base/cap plate to a beam are designed per " Stiffener Plate " locks. The locks control the stiffeners on both sides (NS & FS) of the beam web and are stored with the column on whose end the column plate is applied. Instead of two pairs of stiffeners (shown), you may get a single NS and FS stiffener that is centered over or under the column plate. |
