Column Base Connections – Behavior, Design, and Your Questions Answered
Column base connections are arguably the most important connections in steel buildings, transferring loads from the entire structure into the foundation. At the interface of steel and concrete, these connections are complex in terms of behavior, design, as well as structural interactions with the building frame. This three-part webinar series will perform a deep dive on column base connections and aims to provide a better understanding of the behavior and design of this complex connection. This course will consist of three, 1.5 hour sessions.

Live broadcast for all sessions are on Wednesday, 12:30 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. Central
