Abstract
The paper presents behaviour of the column web panel in shear. The finite element method is employed to examine the resistance of a joint with an extended end plate connection. The FE model is validated to results of physical tests and verified by an analytical solution based on existing formulas. Finally, a parametric study is performed. The studied parameters include web panel thickness, bolt position and the column dimensions.
