How does ideCAD control Beam-to-Column Connection Requirements for IMF Intermediate moment frames according to AISC 341-16?
...
Symbols
Vu = shear force at the end of the beam, kips (N)
Mp = plastic bending moment, kip-in. (N-mm)
Ry = Ratio of the expected yield stress to the specified minimum yield stress, Fy
Mpr = probable maximum moment at the plastic hinge, kip-in. (N-mm), given by Equation 2.4-1
Lh = distance between beam plastic hinge locations, as defined within the test report or AISC 358, in. (mm)
Fu = specified minimum tensile strength of yielding element, ksi (MPa)
Fy = specified minimum yield stress of yielding element, ksi (MPa)
Ze = effective plastic section modulus of section (or connection) at the location of the plastic hinge, in.3 (mm3)
Sh = distance from the face of the column to the plastic hinge
Cpr = factor to account for peak connection strength, including strain hardening, local restraint, additional reinforcement, and other connection conditions
