Steelwork connections with integrated Joint Design according to EC3 standards

With Advance Steel 2010, many automatic connections include Joint Design according to EC3 standards!

We are frequently asked which connections are concerned ; below is the list of the ones where Advance Steel checks in real time if the connection passes (or fails) according to the forces applied to the node, based on EC3 standards

·         Flange Haunch

·         Single Side EndPlate

·         Moment EndPlate

·         Shear Plate

·         Clip Angle

·         Clip Angle Skewed

·         Gusset  for one diagonal

·         Gusset for two diagonals

·         Gusset for three diagonals

With the latest Advance Steel releases, we have some more connections which now include Joint Design according to EC3 standards:

- Apex haunch

- Splice

- Double side clip angle

- Base plate

- Base plate cut

- Base plate for tubes
