Release Notes: May 2024
CISC: Implement AISC-15 bolt holes preference
Material Grade to Plate Material Thickness Combinations: max thickness updates
Fatigue Release Subtasks Desktop + Web Environment
Extended Full Depth Shear Plate with Bolt Columns > 1
There are limitations. Please reach out to Qnect to get details if interested.
Qnect-cplus: allow slope and skew at Beam to Beam Shear Plate connections
Only allow Square to Filler geometry, even if it causes some increase in setback. This is only for this combination when sloped and skewed with max slope +/- 2.86 deg and max skew +/- 5.0 deg. off orthogonal.
web-environment: Add notes and text to preference pages

Fatigue Load: If Fatigue is included in the Qnect UDA, the Fatigue load will be checked only at Beam to Girder Full Depth shear plates connections with Slip Critical bolts in Standard Holes and where beam web doubler plates are not required. The check will be made according to the AASHTO LRFD 2020 Bridge Design Specifications (9th edition, 2020) based on Fatigue Load 1 for Infinite Life and the user must specify all bolt holes drilled full size or sub-punched and reamed to size. Punched holes are not allowed. (See AASHTO Table 6.6.1.2.3-1.1.5 and AASHTO Table 6.6.1.2.3-1.2.1). The detailing radius at coped beams and full depth shear plates will be set to 1 in. minimum to allow the 10 ksi stress level according to AISC 15th edition Table A-3.1-1.3.
