SIMPLE CONNECTIONS• Connections of structural steel members are of critical
importance. An inadequate connection, which can be the "weak link" in a structure, has been the cause of numerous failures. Failure of structural members is rare; most structural failures are the result of poorly designed or detailed connections. The problem is compounded by the confusion that sometimes exists regarding responsibility for the design of connections.
• Modern steel structures are connected by welding or bolting or by a combination of both.
• Welding has several advantages over bolting. A welded connection is often simpler in concept and requires few, if any, holes . Connections that are extremely complex with fasteners can become very simple when welds are used.
SIMPLE CONNECTIONSIn considering the behavior of different types of
connections,• The tension member splices shown below subject
the fasteners to forces that tend to shear the shank of the fastener. Similarly, the weld shown below must resist shearing forces.
• The connection of a bracket to a column flange, as in next Figure, whether by fasteners or welds, subjects the connection to shear when loaded as shown.

bearing is shear, tear-out at the end of a connected element, as shown in the next Figure. If the failure surface is idealized as shown in the next Figure, the failure load on one of the two surfaces is equal to the shear fracture stress times the shear area, or

The design shear strength of both A325 and A490 bolts is øRn, where the resistance factor
Ø is 0.75. As with common bolts, the nominal shear strength of high-strength bolts
is given by the ultimate shearing stress times the nominal bolt area. Unlike A307 bolts,
however, the shear strength of A325 and A490 bolts depends on whether the threads
are in a plane of shear. Rather than use a reduced cross-sectional area when the
threaded portion is subject to shear, the ultimate shearing stress is multiplied by a factor
of 0.75, the approximate ratio of threaded area to unthreaded area. The strengths
are given in AISC Table 13.2 and are summarized in Table 7.1. AISC Table 13.2 refers
to threads in a plane of shear as "not excluded from shear planes" and refers to threads
not in a plane of shear as "excluded from shear planes." The first category, threads included in the shear plane, is sometimes referred to as connection type "N," and an
A325 bolt of this type can be denoted as an A325-N bolt. The designation "X" can be
