End-Plate Connections
Number of possible limit states: Flexural yielding of beam section Flexural yielding of end plates Tension of end-plate bolts Shear failure of end-plate bolts Etc. Ensure inelastic deformation of connection is achieved by beam yielding Shear resistance from bolts in compression
