About this detail

A heavy steel truss chord and diagonal connection frames into a W14x730 grade 65 steel column stub with concrete encasement. The base assembly features a 4-inch by 36-inch by 12-foot base plate secured with forty-four 2-inch diameter ASTM F1554 Grade 55 anchor rods having a 24-inch minimum embedment. Gusset plates, flange plates, connection plates, and side plates are attached with complete joint penetration and fillet welds ranging from 5/16-inch size using E80 electrodes. Stiffener plates are provided at each side, aligned with the wide-flange web and spaced at 1 foot 0 inches on center. The steel column jacket is slotted at the gusset and flange plates, with studs offset at the gusset location. Concrete encasement is omitted from the graphic representation, requiring stirrups to extend up to the gusset plate edge and longitudinal bars to project past the pile cap face.
