OMF Connection to HSS Column
The project I'm working on is in SDC D (so no R = 3), but we fall into the exception of 12.2.5.6.1 which allows us to use OMF for our situation. Due to architectural constraints, we're looking at using HSS columns with wide flange beams to make up the…
RAM Connection Flexural Yielding - P.9-6 - Coped Connection
I'm looking at the results of some reasonable high reactions for a w10 framing into another W10 (on the order of 46K).
I understand everything except for the "flexural Yielding and Flexural Rupture checks" which reference P.9-6.
