Design of Shear Connection Between Beam To Beam:: As Per AISC 13 Edition (ASD)

This document provides a design for a bolted shear connection between steel beams. It summarizes the section properties of the supported and supporting beams. The design connection forces of 62 kN of shear force and 385 kN of tension force are specified. The document then details the design of the bolts, including bolt size, grade, shear and tension capacities. It is determined that the design bolt strength of 42 kN is insufficient for the maximum shear force in a single bolt of 73.2 kN. Finally, the design of the fin plate at the bolt centerline is summarized.
