MOMENT CONNECTION DESIGN:
Adopt 8-Bolt pattern of which 4 are Tension Bolts.

Beam Properties
Flange Width, bfb = 7.5 In.
Flange Thk, tfb = 0.5625 In.
Overall Depth, d1 = 18 In.
Web Thk, tw = 0.355 In.
Web Depth, dw = 16.875 In.

Connection Forces
Moment, M = 160 Kip-ft
Shear = 40 Kips

Bolts & End Plate Design

End Plate Width, bp= bfb + 1 = 8.5 In.

Flange Force, Ff = M/d = 107 Kips
No. of Tension Bolts, Nb = 4
Tension in Each Bolt, T = Ff/Nb = 26.7 Kips
Use A325 Bolts of Dia, db = 1 In.
Allowable Tension of Bolt = 34.6 Kips
Length of Weld, L = [2(bfb+tfb)-tw)] 15.77 In.
Flange Weld size, S = (Ff/0.928xL) 7.3 In.
Use 1/2" fillets.
Assume Distance b/w Beam Flange& Top of
Upper Bolt, Pf = 2 In.
Actual Pf is Distance b/w CL
of Upper bolt to CL of Weld = (2-0.5) => Pf = 1.5 In.
Per AISC Sec4-118,Point of Inflection is
Assumed @ Pf/2 =>lever arm, a = Pf/2 0.75 In.
For End Plate Thk determination, Limiting
Stress =0.75fy => For A36 Steel = 0.75x36 27 ksi

End Plate Moment, Me= Tx2xa 40.0 Kip-In

End Plate Thk, tp= Ö (6xMe)/(27xbp) 1.02 In.
Use 1-1/8" plate implies Plate Thk = 1-1/8" In.

Therefore, End Plate size is 8.5 x 1-1/8"

Note: Depth of End Plate can be taken as {(Overall Beam Depth) + (2x[(Pf -(db)/2)+1-1/4")]}
implies End Plate Depth = 23.5 In.

Column Stiffeners
Fyc = 36 ksi
Column Section = W14X193
Column Section Overall Depth, d2 = 14 In.
Column Flange Thk, tfc= 1.4375 In.
Column Web Thk, twc= 0.89 In.
Col section fillet = 0.6875 In.
Column Web Depth Clear of Fillets, dc =d-(4x0.6875) 11.25 In.
Distance from outer face of flange-
to web toe of fillet, k= (tfc + 0.6875) 2.125 In.
Fillet weld size, w = 0.4375 In.

(1) Check For Column Web Yielding:

Factored beam flange or Connection
plate force in a restrained connection, Pbf = (5/3)*Ff 177.8 Kips
Pbf(allow)= Fyc x twc x (tfb+6k+2tp+2w) = 520.1 Kips >177.8 OK
Since Pbf(allow)>Pbf, Column Stiffeners are not required.
(2) Check For Column Web Buckling:
Pbf(allow)= (4100 x twc 3 Ö Fyc)/dc 1542 Kips >177.8 OK
Since Pbf(allow)>Pbf, Column Stiffeners are not required.

(3) Check For Column Flange Bending Opposite Tension Flange:

Distance From CL of Web to fillet, k1 = [(twc)/2] +0.625 1.07

Effective Column Flange Length

(analogous to end plate width), bpc = 2.5(Pf+tfb+Pf) 8.91 In.

Assume gage distance, g = 5.5 In.

Effective horizontal bolt distance analogous
to Pe for End Plates, Pec = (g/2)-k1-(db/4) 1.43 In.
Note: Pe is Euler buckling load.
Coefficient Used for Moment in End Plate
Design, Cb = @ 1.0 1.0
Coefficient Af/Aw = @ 1.0 1.0
Moment Ratio, α m =1.13 x 1.0 x(1.0)1/3 x (Pec/twc)1/4 1.27
Extreme Fibre Moment, Me =α m x Ff x (Pec/4) = 48.51 Kip-In

Required Flange Thk, tfc= Ö (6xMe)/(27xbpc) 1.10 In. <1.4375 OK

Since tfc(reqd)<tfc, Column Stiffeners are not required.
