A comparison of moment capacity versus shear capacity i s presented. I t i s determined that the connection works w e l l i n shear and that moment governs over shear when designing a t r u s s plate connection for most p r a c t i c a l purposes.electronicen-CAhttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_16ecsenior reportSchriver, AllisonB., SchriverCivil Engineering
