Abstract
A fitting for effecting a bolted connection between a beam and a column in a steel frame structure includes a beam connecting portion and a column connecting portion. In addition, reinforcing elements are provided to strengthen the bracket and resist vertical eccentricity and loading caused by the particular bolted connection. The various embodiments of the bracket are particularly useful in the context of repairing cracked or damaged weld connections at the beam/column interface in existing steel structures, but have application in the context of upgrading or reinforcing existing weld connections that may not otherwise be damaged. Also, the bracket can be used in new steel frame constructions.
