" Shear Tab " & " Tab Clips and Copes " connection design locks

A single-plate shear connection can be designed per " Shear Tab " and " Tab Clips and Copes " locks for beam-to-column and beam-to-beam framing situations.
(beam, single-plate shear connection, to a beam or column)
(" Input connection type " = ' Shear ' or ' Auto standard ' or ' User defined ')
(" Material type " = ' Plate ')
(" Moment type " = ' Non-moment ' or ' Bolted ' or ' Welded ')
" Shear Tab "

" Tab Clips and Copes "
( cuts made to a shear plate )
