Moment-rotation characteristics of semi-rigid, high-tensile bolted connections.

Moment rotation characteristics are obtained for a standard web connection for a 12 inch deep beam using high tensile bolts. Variables were 1) initial pre-tension 2) thickness of angle 3) ratio moment shear. The results obtained are compared with existing information. The rotation is found to be due to angle deformation and column deformation. The effect or the column flange stiffness on the connection characteristics are analyzed. The effect of the history of the connection is shown also. The determination or pre-tension in the bolts is described as well as the complete instrumentation and behaviour during test.
