About this detail

This connection assembly features a structural steel column supporting a girder per plan, with a vertical member and an angled brace meeting at a gusset plate measuring three-eighths of an inch thick. A half-inch thick stiffener plate with five-sixteenth-inch welds is centered above the column flanges and four places below. Five-sixteenth-inch fillet welds secure the brace and gusset plate, while quarter-inch welds attach internal components. A complete joint penetration weld with backing bar near and far is specified at the column connection. An elevation marker indicates reference level 109 feet 10 and three-quarter inches at grid line 15.
