About this detail

A structural steel angle brace connection spans between two framing beams. The bracing assembly utilizes double angles, such as 2-L3x2-1/2x3/8 or 2-L3x2-1/2x1/4 back-to-back, connected at each end using three-eighths-inch thick plates with seven-eighths-inch diameter ASTM A325 slip-critical bolts. Stitch bolts and weld lengths are sized per the accompanying schedule based on beam type, including eccentrically braced frame beams, special moment frame beams, and gravity beams. Fillet welds of one-quarter inch size attach the connection plates to the supporting beam webs.
