As the name goes, shear connection is for resisting shear force only. It stops the two connected members from sliding up and down or back and forth. If two members are connected by a single bolt / pin, they can not move up and down but can move in circle ie rotate, ie the connection has no resistance to turning ie moment. If at this place we put two or more pins or nails, the members will neithe move nor rotate.more pins, bolts , welds more the capacity to resist this turning or angular movement. This is a moment connection. In the actual design of a shear connection the area of pin or bolt (in single or double shear) should be adequate to resists the force which is trying to take it apart. In design of moment connection the moment is transformed into a couple ( two forces at a distance) and the connection is designed ( bolts or welds) for this forces.

Shear Connection will resist the member from Sliding

i.e Wagon connected to train and combined two Bus it help it turning and rotation.

Moment Connection will resist the member from Turning more than one bolt resist rotation same way in steel structure Moment connection is better

What is Moment of resistance?

Moment of resistance, ususally denoted as W is a term in structural engineering. It is found from the moment of inertia I and the distance from the outside of the object concerned to its major axis e. W = I/e It is used in structural calculations since the stress can be written as stress=moment/W It really works much better with graphical explanation which i unfortunately can't add in simple moment of resistance means couple produce when a beam subjected to bending under the action of loads.


Which Is Better Acer Tablet PC Or Hp Laptop With Beats Audio?

It depends on the hardware of the PC this is what you should check between them Ram/Hard Drive/Memory Graphics Card processor Although my Preferences between the two at the moment i would chose HP because they have a easy to understand system recovery in case of anything Bad Happens. if you need any help for the spec between them them both send them to me and ill let you know witch one is better.


How do you install a PHP editor?

1. Choose a program that you prefer. Wordpad, Editplus, Dreamweaver 2. IF you need to purchase it. go to the website/shop and buy it. 3. install it on your machine I used EditPlus for a few years as it colourises your code and it's free to trial and cheap to buy. I am using Dreamweaver at the moment and there's not that much difference apart from the FTP feature.

What is moment connection?

A Moment Connection in structural design is a connection joint between a beam and a column where the end of the beam is restrained from rotating, thus creating a rigid frame without the use of conventional cross-bracing. Standard, or "pinned" connections are usually bolted and/or welded through the beam web and allow the beam to "rotate" in the "Y" direction when the beam is loaded. A moment connection freezes, or locks up the top and bottom flanges of the beam, thus making it "rigid".

What is difference between moment and bending moment?

Take a beam as an example. Moment is responsible for a beam to rotate about some axis. Whereas bending moment are a pair of moments which will not rotate the beam but it will deflect it.
