End Plate Connection

This document summarizes the design of an end plate connection using 4 bolts. It provides the loading conditions, member properties, bolt properties, and connection geometry. It then calculates the potential resistance capacities of the bolts in tension, including the column and end plate flange bending and web tension capacities. The minimum potential resistance values are reported for each bolt row.
