The present paper proposes the formulae for predicting the yield strength and the maximum strength of the moment joints. For the yield strength, by first, deriving analytically expressions to estimate the strength of the joints, and then empirically modifying them to reflect the previous test results. The proposed formulae very well explain the change of the failure modes from Model to Mode 2 (Fig. 15). For the maximum strength, the empirically formula to predict the local strength of RHS-column to H-beam connections in rigid steel frame is applied. The proposed formulae are summarized in Table 13.
