CLIP ANGLE SHEAR CONNECTION WITH CONCRETE -CLIP_ANGLE_QN-BOLTED- CONNECTED TO CONCRETE

A clip angle shear connection with concrete involves connecting a clip angle to a concrete element, such as a concrete beam or column. The clip angle is typically bolted to the concrete element, providing shear resistance and transferring loads between the steel and concrete components.

In this case, the clip angle is connected to the concrete element using bolts. The QN designation may refer to the welding configuration on the steel side, indicating that the clip angle is fillet welded on both sides to the supporting steel member. However, the connection to the concrete is achieved through bolting rather than welding.

The clip angle serves as a connection element, providing stability and load transfer between the steel and concrete components. The bolts used to secure the clip angle to the concrete element ensure that the connection can resist applied loads and maintain the overall structural integrity.

This type of connection is commonly used in composite steel and concrete structures, where the combined strength and benefits of both materials are utilized to create efficient and robust structural systems.
