Fasteners

The selected type of element connection determines additional tabs in the Define a Pinned Beam-to-Column Connection dialog; using these tabs you can define the following connection parameters:

  • tabs for the bolted connection:
    • bolt diameter
    • bolt class
    • shear plane (passing through unthreaded or threaded portion of a bolt)
    • number of bolts (in columns and rows)
    • arrangement of bolts (vertical and horizontal spacing)
    • distance from the edge
  • tabs for the welded connection; based on a selected connection type, not all options in the dialog might be available.
