New Technique to Improve the Ductility of Steel Beam to Column Bolted Connections: A Numerical Investigation

A novel method to improve the robustness of steel end plate connections is presented in this paper. Existing commonly adopted techniques alter the stiffness of the beam or the end plate to improve the connection’s robustness. In this study, the robustness is enhanced by improving the contribution of...
