Halo/spider, full-moment, column/beam connection in a building frame

A full-moment, male/female, standoff-collar, column/beam, gravity-urged, bottoming-out style nodal connection in place between at least one beam and a column in a building frame, where the column possesses generally planar faces joined at plural, laterally spaced corners, said connection comprising

• a collar having corners, and including, and formed by, plural, adjacent beam-end connecting components, one of which is joined to an end in the at least one beam, each said connecting component possessing a pair of vertically spaced transverse elements each including a generally planar expanse which faces, is spaced outwardly from, and is generally parallel-planar with respect to, an associated column face, with each connecting component forming portions of a pair of said corners in the collar in conjunction with a pair of spaced, adjacent, like connecting components which are associated with adjacent column faces, said collar corners being disposed spaced from and adjacent respective ones of the corners in the column, and
• plural standoff structures joined to and extending outwardly from the corners of the column along extension lines which are non-orthogonal relative to the planes of said planar expanses and the column faces, said standoff structures joining said collar to the column through the corners in the column and the corners in said collar.
