    What standards does this capability follow?

    The connection design follows AISC (American Institute of Steel Construction) standards for simple shear connections.

  • 02

    How do I know if my connection is safe?

    You can use the validate_connection_capacity capability to check if the designed connection safely carries the applied load and to see the utilization ratio.

  • 03

    Can I design double angle connections?

    Yes, the design_connection_geometry capability supports both single plate and double angle connection types.
