In this study, steel column base plate connections of a steel industrial building that are one of the
most important connection regions were studied. Two dimensional static analysis of a steel
industrial building was performed and exposed column base plate dimensions were determined
according to American Institute of Steel Construction Code-LRFD (Load and Resistance Factor
Design) method. The effects of selected steel column cross section types on the behaviour of
column base plate connections were investigated by using RFEM finite element analysis program.
For this purpose, finite element analysis of three types of column base plate connection models
were performed and evaluated comparatively. From results, the best value for top column lateral
displacement was obtained in W column section-base plate connection and the best behaviour for
Von Mises stresses values was obtained in square hollow section column. The undesired behaviour
was determined in circular hollow section column-base plate connection type.
