Data for: Numerical and analytical study of stainless steel beam-to-column extended end-plate connections
Description
In the associated article [1], a finite element (FE) parametric study was performed on a total of 180 stainless steel extended end-plate beam-to-column connections. Then, depending on the numerical results, an analytical method, for estimating the key moment-rotation characteristics of this connection type, was constructed. This dataset provides the details of the 180 connection configurations investigated in the FE parametric study, in addition to other 36 configurations employed in a further verification of the developed analytical equations. Moreover, an online worksheet (built based on the suggested equations) for predicting the complete moment-rotation response of extended end-plate connections produced from stainless steel, is attached to the dataset.
