Analysis and Modeling of Base Plates Under the Effect of Different Loads, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Mofid, Masoud (Supervisor)
Abstract
In steel structured buildings the connection of columns to foundations is of practical significance. This connection customarily is performed by a base plate, which is connected to the foundation with bolts. The columns and base plates are usually prepared separately, and later are welded together by contractors. Due to the errors in the process of fabrication, these plates are proposed with larger dimensions than those suggested by the designers. However, it is believed that the utilization of stiffeners, which are welded to the columns in a perpendicular state, reduces the stress field inside the base plates significantly. Therefore, by use of stiffeners the thickness of base plates can be...
