About this detail

A channel chord splice connection supported by steel joists. The assembly incorporates a continuous bottom plate and a 1-inch by 9-inch by 2'-6" strap plate centered over the splice, with associated splice plates and field welds. Specific conditions are detailed for alternate splices, mid-span locations between joists, ridge conditions, and valley conditions, including bent bottom plates and specified fillet weld sizes. Steel joists serve as the underlying support elements for the continuous channel chords and chord ties.
