This report presents the results of an experimental study investigating shear transfer mechanisms of column base plate details. This investigation is the first phase of a broader study whose aim is to develop improved design guidelines for column base plates. A review of existing design guidelines and published research reveals that shear transfer mechanisms in exposed base plates are not well understood, and methods to characterize
strength capacities in shear are not adequately supported by experimental data. To investigate shear transfer in exposed column base plates, seven large scale specimens were subjected to a combination of axial compression, axial tension and lateral shear deformations. The tests investigated three mechanisms commonly used for shear transfer in base plates, including (1) friction between the base plate and the grouted footing, with and without steel shim stacks (2) anchor rod bearing and (3) shear key bearing. The base plate tests are complemented by ancillary tests to characterize material properties.
Three tests which investigate surface friction indicate that the coefficient of friction between a steel base plate with mill scale and a grouted surface, with or without shim stacks, is 0.45. This value is lower than the design value of 0.55 recommended by the Steel Design Guide One, published by the American Institute of Steel Construction.

Connections of steel columns to concrete foundations may be loaded by combinations of
normal force, bending moment and shear force. Shear force will primarily be transmitted by
friction between the base plate and the grout layer to the concrete foundation. If the compression force is small, or if tension force is present, as may occur in slender high rise structures like towers and masts, the friction will be small or absent. Then, the anchor bolts will be loaded by shear force and bending moment. At the Stevin Laboratory of Delft University of Technology, experimental and theoretical research has been carried out on column bases loaded by combinations of shear force and tension force.
In the paper, the main results of this research programme are summarised. The test results are presented and the analytical model that was developed to describe the load deformation
behaviour.

• Sustainable Building Materials
• Recycling of Building Materials
• Management and Utilization of Natural Resources
• Design Aspects of Sustainability
• Codes Related to Design and Sustainability
• Maintenance and Repair of Structures
• Durability and Long-lasting Structures and High-Rise Buildings
