Popis: The authors of this paper had analysed 468 flush end-plate beam to beam (BFEB) connections covering a wide range of geometrical parameters. Using the results of finite element (FE) analysis, empirical equations are presented to predict the moment-rotation response of BFEB connection. Discussers have studied the proposed model, and have observed the following points: 1. Average value of two size parameters presented in Table 3 is out of the range of minimum and maximum values as follows
