Webinars

This webinar focuses on three real‑world connection design applications: substation A‑frames, pipe racks, and anchored pipe supports. Featuring case studies from real projects, we’ll examine how engineers are solving HSS connection challenges in practice. Attendees will learn practical approaches for […]

Date/Time: December 3, 2025 12:00 pm Central Using Power- Actuated Fasteners (PAF) to fasten structural elements to concrete, steel and now masonry offers significant advantages in speed, efficiency, and cost savings. Designing these connections presents unique challenges including the consideration […]

Date/Time: March 26, 2025 12:00 pm Central Using examples to demonstrate some of the most important design requirements of the AISC 341-22 seismic provisions. The webinar will highlight some of the more complicated requirements covering various frame types and connections. […]

Date/Time: December 4, 2024 12:00 pm Central ACI318 Chapters 17 and 25, and the associated Acceptance Criteria, set very specific criteria and limits around the design and evaluation of post installed anchors and rebar. Although this has been beneficial for […]

Date/Time: June 26, 2024, 12 p.m. Central The attachment of metal to metal can often be a difficult application to specify products for. There are many factors to consider from the thickness of materials being fastened together, drilling capacity of […]

Presented on: September 27, 2023 Welding is generally our “go-to” method for connections to HSS members. However, there are also methods for bolting to HSS members which may increase the efficiency of the connection. The main challenge for using bolts […]

Presented on: Jul 12, 2023 12:00 PM CST This presentation will provide an overview of how to design undercut anchors in concrete properly. After this presentation, attendees will understand undercut anchor anatomy, proper installation procedures, design, and compliance considerations. Real-world […]

Webinar Sponsored by PROSOCO Some veteran contractors have not seen this novel method before! Learn all about helical beaming, a strategy to restore the structural integrity of buildings where the masonry has failed and has lost some, or all, of […]

Presented on: Apr 26, 2023 12:00 PM CST When designing steel moment frames it is important to consider all aspects of the design and construction process in selecting the beam-column connection. DuraFuse Frames is a proprietary moment connection that is […]

Presented on: Wednesday, July 27, 2022 Connection design is one of the last pieces of the structural engineer’s design process that is still mostly done by hand. The framing and connection design often influence each other. Designs can move beyond […]
