About this detail

A buckling-restrained brace gusset plate connects to a column cap plate and a girder, featuring top and bottom flange plates with specified minimum widths. Stiffener plates are installed on each side of the column web as required by the brace manufacturer. The assembly includes specialized weld requirements such as complete joint penetration welds, seismic force-resisting system provisions, and magnetic particle and ultrasonic testing annotations. An extended girder connection provides attachment to the main structural framing.
