About this detail

A structural steel cantilever roof connection features an HSS 7x7x3/8 post extending up to twelve feet six inches maximum above a wide-flange beam support. The post is capped with a one-quarter-inch plate and tied with top and bottom HSS 5x5x1/4 members joined by L6x6x3/8 angles and two three-quarter-inch diameter bolts. A twelve-inch by one-half-inch plate rests at the tube to wide-flange beam connection, secured with typical five-sixteenth-inch fillet welds. Where no wide-flange beam sits below the post, the post is welded directly to the tube beam with no bolted connection permitted. An HSS 8x8x3/8 brace beam is included unless two wide-flange beams meet per plan.
