Partial depth end plates Table G.1 Explanatory notes - PARTIAL DEPTH END PLATES Use of Resistance Tables. "The check numbers refer 10 ose listed in Table GS and Gescribea in Sechon 4.5 Design proceaures, ‘The resistance tables are based on the standard details given in Table G2. 4 SHEAR RESISTANCE OF THE BEAM A, Brw |A+ symbol adjacent to tne beam designation indicates that the serial size is additonal to thase spectied in BS 4-1 2. SHEAR RESISTANCE OF THE CONNECTION ‘This is the critical value of the design checks for the ‘supported beam side’ of the connection, i.e. the minimum resistance from Checks 2, 4,5 (if applicable) 8 and 9. ‘The value given in { } below each beam designation is the shear resistance of the beam, given by For connections with Ordinary or Flowdrll bolts, connection shear resistances are given for un-notched, single: notched and double notched beams. For connections with Hollo-Boit, connection shear resistances sre tabulated for un-notched beams only, 38 Hollo-Bolts are generally only used with un-notched beams. 3 GRITICAL DESIGN CHECK ‘The check which gives the critical value of shear resistance. See Table G3 for ine description of tne checks. 4) NOTCH LIMIT ‘These are maximum lengths of notches for single and double notched beams that can be accommodated if the beam is to camry the tabulated corresponding shear resistance of the connection. The notch length is ‘measured from the end of the beam. The calculated resistances allow for the thickness af the end plate. is assumed that me beam is fully restrained against lateral torsional buckling, and the limiting notch lengths are derived fram Check 5. To provide @ simple check for double notched beams, i has been assumed that the remaining web» depth is the same as the end plate length. 5 MINIMUM SUPPORT THICKNESS ‘This is the minimum thickness of supparting column or beam element thel is needed to carry the given shear Fesistance (un-notched or single notched) of the connection. It ls dered trom Check 10 and & has conservatively been taken as 90 mm. For a symmetrical two sided connection, the minimum support thickness would be twice the tabulated value. I ine applied shear torce Is less then the quoted resistance, the minimum support thickness reduces proportionally. 6 TYING RESISTANCE ‘This ie the cribel value of the design checks for ie ‘supported beam’ side of the connection, Le. the minimum resistance from Checks 11, 12, and 13. The ealeulations assume that no washer is present and dy is taken a3 the wigin acrass paints of the bolt head. ‘Separate checks will have to be carried out on the suppemting members (see Checks 14 and 15).
