About this detail

The assembly features an HSS6x6x1/4 vertical parapet post supported by a steel beam and metal roof deck. An HSS5x5x3/16 diagonal parapet brace connects the post back to a 4-inch diameter standard pipe and support beam assembly at the roof level. A continuous HSS6x2x1/4 member caps the top of the parapet with a 1/2-inch closure plate. Cold-formed metal studs measuring 6 inches by 18 gauge at 16 inches on center are incorporated with continuous beam web stiffeners on each side at the brace connections. Fillet welds are indicated with 1/4-inch sizing at the structural connections.
