Abstract

Steel joints are the main part a steel structure. The steel members come together in a joint, to where the load action will be transferred between them.These members are with different section properties, may be joined with different type of connections welds, bolts or rivets. The level of fixity is also important which varies from flexible, semi-rigid to fixed. There is also an important factor of joint behavior, the type of loading (tension, shear, bending and torsion). For these the mentioned different factors that affects the behavior of a joint very complicated to demonstrate exactly.The design procedure according to the well known specification is generally based on experimental studies.The present study tries to throw light on some factors affecting the strength consideration for designing beam to columnconnection because of its importance in steel structures from point of view of uses.
