A common feature of many steel building frames is the use of two bolts to anchor a baseplate welded to the column end to the concrete foundation. Such a connection is typically assumed to represent a ‘pinned’ connection, meaning that it is assumed for design purposes that the connection is incapable of transferring bending moment. However, virtually no experimental observations to support such a design assumption have been reported.
The present paper presents experimental findings for column-base connection behaviour under axial load and bending moment. The influence of the soil is not considered in the present work.
