The test results demonstrate that the partial cutting fillet weld (PCFW) procedure can effectively enhance the plastic rotation capacity of a weld joint and can avoid brittle fractures. The applicability of the Weibull stress approach when compared to that of the toughness scaling model approach in predicting brittle fractures from the aforementioned cracks is also verified. Beam end failure due to brittle fractures is one of the main reasons for the collapse of steel structures. This paper aims to apply the modified beam cope and the PCFW procedure in an I-section beam end. PCFW offsets the weld access hole in a direction away from the flange plate to avoid strain concentration at the toes of the weld access hole. The suitable shape of the weld access hole used in the field-welded connection is determined through experimental and finite element (FE) analysis. Cyclic loading tests are conducted using beam-to-diaphragm joint models, which represent the beam-to-column connections through the diaphragm. Ductile cracks are initiated at the toes of the submerged arc welding performed between the flange and web plate.
