Connections can be classified into 3 three categories:

  1. The classification according to moment strength is grouped under 3 sections: full strength, partial strength, and hinge.

  2. According to rotational rigidity, it is divided into 3, which are rigid, semi-rigid, and hinged.

  3. According to the rotational capacity, it is classified as highly and moderately ductile.
