How to make such a steel connection

[ali-15-04-1993]

Hey guys how do you make such a connection ( see attached file 1 😞

 fixed beam-column-joint is created with through flanges. ( corner connection 90 degree)

Such connection

But this connection uses stiffeners . It's not with through flanges ?

😕😕😕?

So is it not possible to make such a connection ??

Not exactly as yours. In Robot the stiffeners on a column can only be horizontal.

But it's not stiffeners it's through flanges .

[Artur.Kosakowski]

Unless I'm mistaken I would assume that when you use the stiffeners with the geometry corresponding to the beam's flange the verification procedure should be similar.

I get myseilf into the discussions, we (at the company) had a presentation of Graitec Advance steel (Cad Plugin to make nice steel connection), any chance to export the defined connections in Adavance Steel into RSA, calculate them and get it back into the soft?

thx

For now Robot -> Revit -> Advance ; or Robot -> CIS/2 file -> Advance
(you may find some limitations but...)
