About this detail

A beam-to-column connection at a brace line features an existing beam and column connected via a double angle shear connection with three rows of three-quarter-inch diameter A325F bolts for W12 and W14 shapes, or four rows for W16 shapes. New plates are provided on each side with thickness per plan, connecting to a new WT shape per plan and an existing W8X24 brace verified in the field. Fillet welds of three-sixteenths inch are applied to three sides at the bolted side of the angle, and one-quarter inch welds with six-inch spacing are specified at the ends. Field investigation is required to check for existing mechanical, electrical, and plumbing conflicts and coordinate with the added steel.
