Test of Eccentrically Connected Gusset Plates in Compression

Year: 2025

Type: article

Abstract: An experimental study of twelve bolted single‐brace eccentric gusset plate connections in compression was carried out. Ten specimens were made of steel S355 and two of steel S690. The specimens varied also in their geometry, namely the geometry of the plate, namely the connection plate length, tapering, thickness, weld along one or two sides, and the slenderness of the connected member itself. The results were compared with the predictions of existing analytical models. The observed resistances demonstrate the influence of the plate slenderness on a compressive resistance of the connection. The results will be used for a numerical model validation, later extended into parametric study to better understand the connection behavior.
