Abstract
The strength of eccentrically loaded steel connections is reduced comp ared with concentrically loaded ones. The reduction can be evaluated w ith the capacity reduction factor, which depends on the magnitude of t he eccentricity relative to connection dimensions. The results obtaine d with the capacity reduction factor are compared with those obtained by more involved methods of analysis.
