Question: 1 3 . 5 . Design a double angle welded simple shear ( framed beam ) connection for a W 3 3 1 1 8
Design a double angle welded simple shear framed
beam connection for a W beam connecting
to a column flange which is in thick. The beam
reaction is kips dead load and kips live load.
E electrodes are to be used with shielded metal
arc welding SMAW and the base steel is A
Grade Design using basic principles; then com
pare with applicable AISC Manual tables.
Problem : Note that the connection is all welded, ie the clip angles are shop welded to the
web of the Wx 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, ie the clear distance between the end of the beam and the
column flange is the usual in Design the connection using basic AISC LRFD design
principles, showing all calculations.
