Abstract
An overview of models currently used to assess resistance of top angle flange cleats installed at bolted beam-to-column joints subjected to bending moment is presented. The results of parametric analyses made to this effect point to significant differences in resistance estimations when based on different models. A practical aim of this paper is to acquaint design engineers with this type of connection which, if properly designed, can enable development of a desirable ductile behaviour of steel structures.
