About this detail

A concrete over metal floor deck cantilever is supported by a steel beam and stabilized with a diagonal kicker brace. The concrete slab edge features an L2x2x3/16 edge angle supporting an outrigger at each beam and at four-foot-zero-inch centers maximum. A diagonal kicker of L3x3x1/4 angle connects from the lower flange of the supporting beam back to the underside of the deck using a 3/8-inch by 4-inch by 1-foot 3-inch plate with two 5/8-inch diameter by 5-inch embedded wedge anchors. Fillet welds of 3/16-inch size are specified at the connections, with an option for the contractor to provide a bolted connection using two 7/8-inch diameter A325 bolts instead of field welds at the brace. A continuous number five reinforcing bar runs within the slab, and specific minimum gaps of 3/4-inch to 1-1/4-inch are maintained for exterior finishes such as brick veneer, curtain wall, steel stud framing, or precast framing.
