2. Gusset plate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gusset_plate

   The gusset plate is usually painted to match nearby steel and fixtures and to give it an extra layer of protection. [2] Occasionally gusset plates are made from copper or aluminum, but only with small structures that do not require much support. The copper and aluminum gusset plates also provide a more attractive finish for exposed structures. [2]

3. Truss connector plate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truss_connector_plate

   A truss connector plate is manufactured from ASTM A653/A653M, A591, A792/A792M, or A167 structural quality steel and is protected with zinc or zinc-aluminum alloy coatings or their stainless steel equivalent. Metal connector plates are manufactured with varying length, width and thickness (or gauge) and are designed to laterally transmit loads ...

4. Structural insulated panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_insulated_panel

   The International Building Code references APA, Plywood Design Specification 4—Design & Fabrication of Plywood Sandwich Panels for the design of SIPs. [7] This document addressed the basic engineering mechanics of SIPs but does not provide design properties for the panels provided by any specific manufacturer.

5. Structural engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_engineering

   Structural engineering is a sub-discipline of civil engineering in which structural engineers are trained to design the 'bones and joints' that create the form and shape of human-made structures. Structural engineers also must understand and calculate the stability , strength, rigidity and earthquake-susceptibility of built structures for ...

6. Pin and hanger assembly - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pin_and_hanger_assembly

   Attempts have been made to increase the safety of bridges with pin and hanger assemblies by adding some form of redundancy to the assembly. Retrofits that add redundancy to pin and hanger assemblies include adding a "catcher's mitt"‍—‌a short steel beam attached to the bottom of the cantilevered girder that extends out beneath the suspended girder to "catch" the suspended girder should ...

7. Flitch beam - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flitch_beam

   The method for calculating the size of a flitch beam to be used in construction is straightforward, using the transformed-section method. The steel plate is treated as an equally stiff piece of wood, with its width modified by the ratio of their moduli of elasticity. This allows the deflection of the entire beam to be calculated as if it were ...

9. Buckling-restrained brace - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckling-restrained_brace

   bolted connection – the brace is bolted to the gusset plate in the field. pinned connection – the brace and gusset plate are both designed to accept a pin, which connects them to each other and allows for free rotation. This can be beneficial to the design engineer if he or she needs to specify a pinned-type connection.
