End plate yield strength F yp = 345 [MPa]

The end plate yield line for 8ES-4W bolt pattern is taken from Table 8.5 of Virginia Tech Emmet Sumner's PhD thesis - Unified Design of

Extended End-Plate Moment Connections Subject to Cyclic Loading June, 2003. This thesis was approved by Thomas M. Murray who is the

author of AISC DG4 and DG16.
