47073914-SW-CV-CALC-MOD-102-R5.stdHi ,
I have attached the STAAD model of a bracket which is to be attached to the wall with the help of anchors. This bracket supports the OLE column on it. Please use 3D rendering to get the Idea.
My question is :
I want to design the connections for the members in this structure. As you can see all of them are angles welded to each other.
There is no option to design these weld connection using RAM connection. all the options are suitable for I beam only.
CAn anyone please help me how to solve this issue.
Thanks
Mahesh
These two technotes explain quite a bit about the limitations of connection design using Ram Connection.
There are very few joints in your file where connection design is currently possible. As you noted, the beams in most all connections need to be Wide Flange shapes (though columns and braces support a few more shapes). In Beam-Column-Brace joints, aka Gusset Connections, we expect all three of those members to be present. In other words, we don't have a single brace to beam only joint type.
