Finite Element Modeling of Shallowly Embedded Connections to Characterize Rotational Stiffness

Finite element models were created in Abaqus 6.14 to characterize the rotational stiffness of shallowly embedded column-foundation connections. Scripts were programmed to automate the model generation process and allow study of multiple independent variables, including embedment length, column size,...
