  • Abstract:
  • Steel frames are more preferable than reinforced concrete frames as it takes less time for construction, Due to good quality control, it possesses more sustainability. Long span structural metal frames provide more column free areas. Steel frames are more ductile and flexible in seismic accident than RC frames. The performance of steel frames in vertical and lateral loading is greatly affected by beam-column joint. There are different types of steel beam-column connections, rigid, semi-rigid and flexible connections. In this dissertation, rigid end plate connections are considered: Flushed end-plate connections and extended end-plate connections for two types of loadings: AISC loading and IS loading. The design of connections is done by AISC design procedure which is done by EXCEL worksheet. Required sizes for connections are compared for economy. Analysis is done by FEM software to find out rotation at the connection. The moment-curvature relationship for each connection is carried out to find out its exact behavior under the loading. Required quantity of steel is also carried out per connection for comparison for preference of connection-type for particular moment.
