Steel connections are the integral parts of any steel structure that have a major role in its overall integrity. The standard parts are properly connected to create the steel structures. Because it is customary to prioritise the individual member over the connections when a structural member fails due to overloading, this type of practice impacts numerous structural members. Because connections make up a large amount of the cost of structural steel, connection design should be given top priority for both safety and structural economy.
Below are the types of steel connections:
We design steel connections by using IS 800 clause 10 - connection.
The purpose of fin plates is to transfer only shear and axial force from the supported to supporting members through WEB AREA-like beam-to-beam connection (secondary beam to primary beam) we use fin plate connection.
Force flows from beam to bolt, bolt to the plate, then plate to weld finally weld to beam girder.
The purpose of the end plate connection is to transfer both moment and forces (Shear and axial).
This connection is mainly used for beam-to-column connection to transfer moment, that is end plate design.
Design check for connection:
Beam to endplate through the weld, then end plate to the column by the bolt.
Gusset plate's purpose of transferring load (only axial, not a moment) from the bracing member to the beam and column.
Design check for connection:
The purpose of the splice connection is to facilitate erection in the site, reduce the length, and lap a member to member by using bolt and weld.
Design check for connection:
Pinned Base plate.
Bolt is placed in between the flange, the image is attached below.
Fixed base plate:
Bolt is placed at the outer flange, image attached below.(It can able to take moment)
Design check for connection:

A stiffness modifier is a modification factor that is generally used in the properties of cross section such as moment of inertia, torsion etc., aiding in reducing the stiffness in concrete sections to model cracked behaviour of concrete. The stiffness modifier is applied only on concrete structures as it cracks on loading.

Ellipse is a fundamental component of a conic section and shares many characteristics with a circle. An ellipse is oval in shape as opposed to a circle. An ellipse is a shape with an eccentricity less than one that symbolises a group of points whose distances from its two foci are added up to a fixed value. Everyday examples of the ellipse include the shape of an egg as well as the race track in a sports field.

A topographic map, or toposheet, depicts a three-dimensional terrain area in two dimensions. Since topographic maps display the landscape's horizontal and vertical location, they set themselves apart from other types of maps. It uses a combination of colour, symbols, labels, contour lines, and other graphical elements for visual representation.
