A structural steel davit anchor assembly mounts to a primary support beam per plan using a galvanized 2-inch thick, 1'-4" by 1'-4" anchor base plate and an HSS 7.625x0.328 galvanized davit base. The base plate is welded with five-sixteenths inch fillet welds on three sides, and beam stiffeners are provided on both sides centered under the plate edge. A perpendicular W12x26 minimum beam connects alongside, supported by a one-half inch near side and far side plate matching the beam width. The connection is designed to resist gravity and davit up and down loads of twenty-five kips minimum.
