In this experimental study, the statical characteristics of WF beam-to-SHS column connections using special shaped high strength bolts called "Paddle Bolt" was investigated. The cyclic bending test was carried out with the specimen shaped "T". The specimens were two kinds of combination of beam and column. Three kinds of the reinforcing plates were used at the column skinplate. Also the shape of Paddle Bolt is a little changed in order to avoid the additional bending moment due to shear force. The effect of reinforcing plates at the bolted parts of this beam-to-column connection becomes clear by this test.
