Design of Beam To Beam Connection Using Web Cleat

This document analyzes the design of a beam to beam connection using a web cleat according to BS 5950:2000. It evaluates the strength of bolts connecting the cleat to a supporting reinforced concrete beam. It determines that the bolt shear capacity and tension capacity are adequate but the combined shear and tension demand exceeds the limit state. It also analyzes welding the beam to an endplate and determines the weld lengths providing sufficient capacity for both moment and shear demands.
