Question: 1 3 . 5 . Design a double angle welded simple shear ( framed beam ) connection for a W 3 3 1 1 8

13.5. Design a double angle welded simple shear (framed
beam) connection for a W 33118 beam connecting
to a column flange which is 34 in. thick. The beam
reaction is 25 kips dead load and 100 kips live load.
E70 electrodes are to be used with shielded metal
arc welding (SMAW), and the base steel is A572
Grade 50. Design using basic principles; then com-
pare with applicable AISC Manual tables.
Problem 13.5: Note that the connection is all welded, i.e., the clip angles are shop welded to the
web of the W33x118 and are field welded to the column flange. Include the effect of the
eccentricities for all welds. Show the final design in a clear sketch which is properly labelled and
dimensioned. The beam set back, i.e., the clear distance between the end of the beam and the
column flange is the usual 12 in. Design the connection using basic AISC LRFD design
principles, showing all calculations.
