| description | Extended end-plate type connections are widely utilized in steel assemblies for easy production and assembly. The proper end-plate and bolt selection is paramount to confirming safety and economy in all connections and, consequently, steel buildings. This study presented an approach for refined parametric three-dimensional finite element analysis of bolted steel beam-to-beam extended end-plate connections. The model considers geometrical and material non-linearity to determine the impact of various factors on the connection’s performance. The proposed model was used to construct a parametric study. The study variables were bolt diameter and end-plate thickness, focusing on how thick and thin end plates affect connection conductivity. Numerical outcomes demonstrate that the connection's flexural strength and stiffness capability improved by increasing the end-plate thickness and bolt diameter. Finally, the analysis results were assessed, and the main conclusions were presented. |
