About this detail

This structural section details a buckling-restrained brace connection at a steel column with multiple vertical and horizontal plates. The assembly incorporates a one-inch-thick minimum gusset plate provided by the buckling-restrained brace supplier, connected alongside vertical plate A in four locations, vertical plate B in six locations, and vertical plate C in two locations. Column flange stiffener plates, one inch thick minimum, are welded to the column flanges using complete joint penetration welds in four locations. Washer plates measuring half an inch thick comply with AISC Table 14-2 at three-quarter-inch diameter anchor rods, maintaining a one-inch minimum clearance between washer plates. Horizontal plates of specified thickness, width, and length are detailed in twelve locations with dimensions per the schedule.
