HSS Splice Design Examples: One-Sided Bolting
If you’re working on HSS splice connections, the resources below provide practical, real-world examples and detail drawings on one-sided bolted splice solutions. Atlas Tube and Blindbolt demonstrate splice example calculations, complete with limit state checks, for HSS columns and chords using external splice plates with their proprietary Shuriken, Blindbolt and HD Bolts. Lindapter offers detail drawings of various connection types using Hollo-Bolts, from traditional splice-plated connections to coped and covered splices, complete with maximum connection force capacities for various HSS member sizes.
