A sloped structural steel member connects to a vertical structural column using a gusset plate secured with bolts. The connection accommodates a maximum gap of three-sixteenths of an inch, requiring a bevel plate when tolerances are exceeded. Geometric dimensions specify a maximum distance of two and one-half inches and a slope of 12 vertical to 6.5 maximum horizontal. The joint relies on threaded fasteners and steel plates to transfer loads from the brace into the primary column element.
