This is a component which appears in beam-to-beam bolted steel joints, when a secondary beam with a flush end plate is attached orthogonally to the primary beam by an additional plate welded between its flanges. In this work, six experimental tests have been carried out to calibrate a finite element model which has been used to develop a wide parametric study. Thus, a new formulation for stiffness and resistance based on an equivalent frame is proposed.engAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 4.0 International https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/Steel JointsExperimentalComponent methodFinite elementBeam-to-beam jointEquivalent framejournal articleopen accesshttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.engstruct.2020.111476
