Patent attributes
The beam-column moment connection structure provides secure connection between structural beams and columns, such as conventional I-beams. A first bolt is secured to an upper beam flange at a second end of a beam, where the first bolt extends laterally. Similarly, a second bolt is secured to the lower beam flange at the second end of the beam and also extends laterally. A first block is secured to an exterior face of a first column flange of the column and has a first slot formed therein. Similarly, a second block is secured to the exterior face of the first column flange and has a laterally extending second slot formed therein. The first and second blocks are spaced apart and configured such that the first bolt is received in the first slot and the second bolt is received in the second slot to secure the beam to the column.
