    The document summarizes the design of a column base plate connection subjected to axial tension, bending moment, and shear forces. It provides details of the column, base plate, anchor bolts, and calculations to check the adequacy of the plate thickness, welds, bolts, and concrete anchorage. The calculations show that the plate thickness, welds, bolts, and concrete anchorage are adequate to resist the applied forces with the exception of shear which requires additional design measures.

    The key takeaways from the document are that it describes the process of designing a column base plate to resist various design forces and moments from a column, including calculating the required plate thickness, checking the capacity of welds and bolts, and ensuring adequate strength of components like the base plate and anchor plates.

    The design forces and moments considered in the column base plate design are the axial tension force (Fc), bending moment (M), and shear force (Fv) from the column.

    The tension force in the bolts (Tf) is calculated by first determining the compression force in the concrete (Cf) based on the assumed compression block dimensions, and then taking the difference between Cf and the axial tension force Fc in the column.
