给出了构件比例、接缝区域中柱芯的限制、接缝剪切应力的控制、连接处柱梁弯曲强度的比率、钢筋的发展以及接缝中柱和梁框架的细节的建议。正常类型用于推荐。评注以斜体字提供，以扩大建议，并确定可用的参考资料。这些建议基于实验室测试和现场研究，并对当前信息提供了最先进的总结。确定了需要研究的领域。给出了设计实例，以说明设计建议的使用。

Recommendations are given for member proportions, confinement of the column core in the joint region, control of joint shear stress, ratio of column-to-beam flexural strength at the connection, development of reinforcing bars, and details of columns and beams framing into the joint. Normal type is used for recommendations. Commentary is provided in italics to amplify the recommendations an identify available reference material.The recommendations are based on laboratory testing and field studies and provide a state-of-the-art summary of current information. Areas needing research are identified. Design examples are presented to illustrate the use of the design recommendations.
