This paper proposes the use of artificial neural networks to predict the flexural resistance and initial stiffness of beam-to-column steel joints using the back propagation supervised learning algorithm. Three types of steel beam-to-column joints were investigated: welded, endplate and bolted with top, seat and double web angles, respectively. The neural networks results proved to be consistent with experimental and design code reference values. Copyright © 2005 by ABCM.
