L splice (175)

L splice (175) connects two columns or beams that have L profiles using an L splice bolted to both parts. Splice plates can be created at and bolted to the back of the L profiles. Shim plates can be created between the L splice and the L profiles. A gap can be specified between the two L profiles.

Objects created

  • L profile splice

  • Splice plates

  • Shim plates

  • Bolts

Use for

Situation Description

Beams connected with L splice. Splice plates are created.

Selection order

  1. Select the main part.

  2. Select the secondary part.

    The connection is created automatically when the secondary part is selected.

Picture tab

Use the Picture tab to define the distance between the main and secondary part, and the chamfer dimensions.

Dimensions

Description

1

Distance between the main part and the secondary part

Description

1

Vertical chamfer dimension for the L splice chamfer

2

Horizontal chamfer dimension for the L splice chamfer

Parts tab

Use the Parts tab to define the part properties.

Parts

Option Description

L profile

Select the profile from the profile catalog.

Plate 1 (y direction)

Plate 2 (z direction)

Plate 3 (y direction)

Plate 4 (z direction)

Select the splice plate profile from the profile catalog.

Filler plate

Thickness and width of the shim plate

Filler plate 2

Width of the shim plate

Corner chamfers

Select which corners of the splice plate are chamfered, and define the horizontal and vertical dimensions of the chamfers.

In Offset from heel, define the offset distance from the bottom corner.

Bolts tab

Use the Bolts tab to define the bolt group dimensions and bolt properties.

The two bolt groups on the left side of the dialog box are the main part bolt groups, and those on the right are the secondary part bolts. If you do not define the properties for the secondary part bolts, the properties of the main part bolts are used.

Bolt group dimensions

Description

1

Bolt edge distance.

Edge distance is the distance from the center of a bolt to the edge of the part.

2

Number of bolts.

3

Bolt spacing.

Use a space to separate bolt spacing values. Enter a value for each space between bolts. For example, if there are 3 bolts, enter 2 values.

4

Define which bolts are deleted from the bolt group.

Enter the bolt numbers of the bolts to be deleted and separate the numbers with a space. Bolt numbers run from left to right and from top to bottom.

Bolt basic properties

Option

Description

Default

Bolt size

Bolt diameter.

Available sizes are defined in the bolt assembly catalog.

Bolt standard

Bolt standard to be used inside the component.

Available standards are defined in the bolt assembly catalog.

Tolerance

Gap between the bolt and the hole.

Thread in mat

Defines whether the thread may be within the bolted parts when bolts are used with a shaft.

This has no effect when full-threaded bolts are used.

Yes

Site/Workshop

Location where the bolts should be attached.

Site

Slotted holes

You can define slotted, oversized, or tapped holes.

Option

Description

Default

1

Vertical dimension of slotted hole.

0, which results in a round hole.

2

Horizontal dimension of slotted hole, or allowance for oversized holes.

0, which results in a round hole.

Hole type

Slotted creates slotted holes.

Oversized creates oversized holes.

No hole does not create holes.

Tapped creates tapped holes.

Rotate Slots

When the hole type is Slotted, this option rotates the slotted holes.

Slots in

Part(s) in which slotted holes are created. The options depend on the component in question.

Bolt assembly

The selected check boxes define which component objects (bolt, washers, and nuts) are used in the bolt assembly.

If you want to create a hole only, clear all the check boxes.

To modify the bolt assembly in an existing component, select the Effect in modify check box and click Modify.

Bolt length increase

Define how much the bolt length is increased. Use this option when, for example, painting requires the bolt length to be increased.

Staggering of bolts

Option

Description

Default

Not staggered

AutoDefaults can change this option.

Not staggered

Staggered type 1

Staggered type 2

Staggered type 3

Staggered type 4
