2 AISC B3.6 Types of Connections Categorized by amount of restraint Fully-restrained (FR) Moment connection a.k.a. Rigid connection Transfers moment with negligible rotation (rotational restraint ~90% or more) May assume no relative rotation Shall have sufficient strength and stiffness to maintain angle at strength limit states

3 AISC B3.6 Types of Connections Partially-Restrained (PR) Moment Connections Rotation between connected members is not negligible Insufficient stiffness to maintain the angles between connecting members Use of PR connections requires consideration of strength, stiffness, ductility characteristics into analysis and design

4 AISC B3.6 Types of Connections Simple Connections a.k.a. unrestrained, pinned support Original angle changes 80% or more of that of a theoretical frictionless hinge Transfer of shear forces only; negligible moment resistance q

5 AISC B3.6 Simple Connections Requirements Unrestrained relative rotation between framing elements may be assumed Connections shall have sufficient rotation capacity to accommodate the required rotation determined by the analysis of the structure

6 Flexible Moment Connections AISC Part 11 Special case in PR connection section Simplified approach to PR connection design Good for preliminary design Beam and web connections designed as simple framing Consider gravity loads only Beam flange-to-column connections and beams designed for lateral loads Designed as fully restrained Economical and valid for frames <10 stories high

7 Flexible Moment Connections AISC Part 11 Shakedown - this PR connection does not achieve its final moment capacity until it has been subjected to full gravity and lateral loading Shakedown moment = plastic moment of the connection Note: specific requirements for stability analysis
