Interim Review on Welded Unreinforced Flange Welded Web (WUF-W) Steel Moment Frame Connections

Publication: Forensic Engineering (2003)

Abstract

This paper reviews the research and testing carried out on the Welded Unreinforced Flange Welded Web (WUFW) Steel Moment Frame Connections for the SAC Joint Venture. The connection is classified as a "Prequalified Welded Fully Restrained Connection" in FEMA 350. Based upon the review carried out by the authors, utilizing the criteria for Prequalified Connections stated in FEMA 350, the authors show that, in their opinion, the connection should not be classified as Prequalified. The authors give recommendations for the limited use of the connections and modifications to design procedures.
