Review Report

If Top Flange of Beam in Compression: Interior moment connection means the top of beam below the top of column at least the column depth, otherwise, it is called exterior moment connection If Top Flange of Beam in Tension: Interior moment connection means top of beam below the top of column at least 10 times of flange thickness of beam, otherwise, it is called exterior moment connection Custom Shape American ShapeASDLRFD Bolted Moment Connection
