The Connection Resistance dialog displays the pre-defined connection resistances for steel beams to Eurocode and US head codes. It can also be used to add or edit user-defined connection resistances.
To open the dialog:
- Click the Home tab.
- Click Materials.
The Materials dialog is displayed.
- On the Sections page, check that the required head code and material are displayed.
Note: Both steel and cold formed materials can have resistances defined, unless the head code is US, in which case resistances can be defined for steel only.
- Click Connection Resistance
The dialog content is described below.
