About this detail

The assembly features a hollow structural section column sized HSS 6x4x3/8 supporting an elevator guide rail, tying into a structural beam per plan and anchored into a concrete substrate. Section A details the beam connection utilizing a 3/8-inch by 5-inch bent plate with vertically long slotted holes measuring 11/16-inch by 1-9/16-inch, secured by two 5/8-inch diameter ASTM A307 through bolts. A five-sixteenths fillet weld connects the assembly on three sides typically, with a quarter-inch fillet weld at the top beam interface. Section B details the base anchorage at the concrete slab, utilizing a half-inch plate with two 5/8-inch diameter ASTM A307 bolts having an 8-inch minimum embedment and 3-inch minimum edge distance, or alternatively two 5/8-inch diameter HKB II anchors embedded 4 inches minimum into the concrete. Architectural fill is indicated where it occurs above the top of concrete finish line, with a blockout provided around the base plate. The column is specified to be installed after the concrete fill reaches design strength.
