Steel Connection - Pin & Hinge, Rounded End
Steel Connection - Pin & Hinge, Rounded End
A pin and hinge steel column connection with a rounded end is a type of connection that allows for rotation of the column. It is made up of a pin, which is a cylindrical piece of metal that fits through holes in the column and beam, and a hinge, which is a plate of metal that is welded to the column and beam and allows the pin to rotate. The rounded end of the column allows for a more gradual transfer of force from the column to the beam, which can help to reduce stress and fatigue in the beam.
Rounded End Pin & Hinge Steel Connections are available in a range of sizes with plate widths and depths between 5.1”-15.3” (13-38.9 cm), overall heights from 2.72”-7.64” (6.9-19.4 cm), and plate thicknesses between .47”-1.18” (12-30 mm).
