Ways to use them
Base Plate
Base plates are used as a support for columns coming off a concrete pad or foundation. To ensure longevity and stability, it is essential to leave a gap of around 20 – 30 mm between the concrete and the steel plate, which can be achieved using shims and wedges. This gap will then need to be filled by packing a dry mixture of concrete, also known as a dry-pack, into the gap.
End Plate
An end plate is used to anchor the end of a beam to the wall and is also part of the ‘End plate connection’.
End Plate Connection
This type of connection is used to join a column to a beam or another beam to a flange.
