J-1 CHAPTER J DESIGN OF CONNECTIONS INTRODUCTION Chapter J of the addresses the design and heking of onnetions. The hapter s primary fous is the design of welded and bolted onnetions. Design requirements for fillers, splies, olumn bases, onentrated fores, anhors rods, and other threaded parts are also overed. Speial requirements for onnetions subjet to fatigue are not overed in this hapter.
J- Example J.1 Fillet Weld in Longitudinal Shear Given: An ¼ in. 18-in. wide plate is fillet welded to a a-in. plate. Assume that the plates are ASTM A57 grade 50 and have been properly sized. Assume F EXX 70 ksi. Note that plates would normally be speified as ASTM A36, but F y 50 ksi plate has been used here to demonstrate requirements for long welds. Size the welds for the loads shown. Solution: Determine the maximum weld size Beause the overlapping plate is ¼ in., the maximum fillet weld size that an be used without speial notation (built out to obtain full-throat thikness as required in AISC Setion J.b) is a x-in. fillet weld. A x-in. fillet weld an be deposited in the flat or horizontal position in a single pass (true up to -in). Determine the required strength P u 1.(33 kips) + 1.6(100 kips) 00 kips P a 33 kips + 100 kips 133 kips Determine the length of weld required The design strength per inh of a x-in. fillet weld is φr n 1.39 (3) 4.17 kips/ in.

J-3 Chek the weld for length to weld size ratio l w 4 in. 18 > 100, 0.188 in. Therefore Equation J-1 must be applied, and the length of weld inreased, sine the resulting β will redue the available strength below the required strength. Try a weld length of 7 in. The new length to weld size ratio is 7 in. /0.188 in. 144 Eqn.

J-4 Example J. Fillet Weld Loaded at an Angle Given: Design a fillet weld at the edge of a gusset plate to arry a fore of 50 kips due to dead load and a fore of 150 kips due to live load, at an angle of 60 degrees relative to the weld. Assume the beam and the gusset plate thikness and length have been properly sized. Solution: Calulate the required strength P u 1.(50 kips) + 1.6(150 kips) 300 kips P a 50 kips + 150 kips 00 kips Assume a -in. fillet weld is used on eah side. The shear strength of a -in. fillet weld is 5(1.39) 6.96 kip/in. And for two sides (6.96 kip/in.) 13.9 kip/in. 5(0.98) 4.64 kip/in. And for two sides (4.64 kip/in.) 9.8 kip/in. Beause the angle of the fore relative to the axis of the weld is 60 degrees, the strength of the weld an be inreased as follows: 1.5 k w 0.60FEXX ( 1.0 + 0.50 sin θ ) 1.5 0.60(70) ( 1.0 + 0.50 (0.866) ) 1.40

J-7 Example J.4 Slip-Critial Connetion with Short Slotted Holes High-strength bolts in slip-ritial onnetions are permitted to be designed to prevent slip either as a servieability limit state or as a strength limit state. The most ommon design ase is design for slip as a servieability limit state. The design of slip as a strength limit state should only be applied when bolt slip an result in a onnetion geometry that will inrease the required strength beyond that of a strength limit state, suh as bearing or bolt shear. Suh onsiderations our only when oversized holes or slots parallel to the load are used, and when the slipped geometry inreases the demand on the onnetion. Examples inlude the ase of ponding in flat-roofed long span trusses, or the ase of shallow, short lateral braing. Given: Selet the number of ¾-in. ASTM A35 slip-ritial bolts with a Class A faying surfae that are required to support the loads shown when the onnetion plates have short slots transverse to the load. Selet the number of bolts required for slip resistane only. Assume that the onneted piees have short slots transverse to the load. Use a mean slip oeffiient of 0.35, whih orresponds to a Class A surfae. Solution: Calulate the required strength P u 1.(17 kips) + 1.6(51 kips) 10 kips P a 17 kips + 51 kips 68 kips For standard holes or slots transverse to the diretion of the load, a onnetion an be designed on the basis of the servieability limit state.

Solution: P u 10 kips and P a 68 kips per the first solution For this onnetion, the designer has determined that oversized holes or slots parallel to the diretion of the load will result in a deformed geometry of the onnetion that reates a ritial load ase. Therefore, the onnetion is designed to prevent slip at the required strength level. φ 0.85 Ω 1.76 In addition, h s will hange beause we now have long slotted holes.

J-10 Example J.5 Combined Tension and Shear in a Slip-Critial Connetion. Beause the pretension of a bolt in a slip-ritial onnetion is used to reate the lamping fore that produes the shear strength of the onnetion, the available shear strength must be redued for any load that produes tension in the onnetion. Given: The slip-ritial bolt group shown below is subjeted to tension and shear. This onnetion is designed for slip as a servieability limit state. Use ¾-in. diameter ASTM A35 slip-ritial lass A bolts in standard holes. This example shows the design for bolt slip resistane only, and assumes that the beams and plates are adequate to transmit loads in a rigid fashion. Solution: The fastener pretension for a ¾-in. diameter ASTM A35 bolt is 8 kips D u 1.13 per Setion J3.8. N b number of bolts arrying the applied tension.
