02 Rigid Connection Part2 Column Web Transverse In Tension

This playlist series focuses on the rigid connection calculation according to EN 1993-1-8. A comparison is made with Ansys at the end of the series after hand calculation. Finally, tips for applying the semi-rigid connection to RFEM are presented. An Endplate welded to a beam, HEA200, is bolted to a HEB300 column with 6M20 class 8.8, as shown in the figures below. Steel material is S355 for all parties. This video shows the resistance calculation of a column web in transverse tension according to EN 1993-1-8. The contents are as follows:

  1. Table 6.1 Item 3 explanation.
  2. Column Web in transverse tension according to 6.2.6.3.
  3. Reduction factor for the interaction with shear in the column web panel.
  4. Transformation parameters exact and approximation calculation.
  5. Tension resistance of the column web in transverse tension.
