• Gusset Strength Calcs:
• Gusset Plate Strength Calculations:
• Potential Minimum Connection Length, Lconn: 21.00 in.
• Gusset Thickness, tgus: 0.31 in.
• Beam Web Thickness, twbm: 0.75 in.

Check Horizontal Block Shear

Using AISC 15th Ed. Equation J4-5
Block Shear = {(phi) * ((0.6 * Fu * Anv) + (Ubs * Fu * Ant))} <= {(phi) * ((0.6 * Fy * Agv) + (Ubs * Fu * Ant))}

• Web-environment: update Noconnect report - separate Unidentified connections into a separate table at bottom of report.
  • This will show when one or both sides of a beam are not connected to anything (not included in upload) and more importantly if the part is not identified in the building code.
