About this detail

A structural connection links a steel roof joist and a concrete tilt-up sandwich wall panel. A metal roof deck bears on a continuous L3x3x1/4 angle welded perpendicular to the deck flutes with 3/16 fillet welds. The concrete wall panel incorporates scheduled horizontal panel reinforcement or two continuous number 5 minimum rebars at the joist bearing, along with a 3/8-inch by 8-inch by 4-inch embed plate secured with two 3/4-inch diameter by 5-inch headless stud anchors spaced at a maximum of 48 inches on center. A steel angle brace measuring L5x3x1/4 is spaced at a maximum of 6 feet on center with a minimum of two per panel, located within 2 feet of the panel ends. The brace connects using an L4x4x3/8 by 8-inch angle with two 3/4-inch diameter by 5-inch epoxy anchors on the joist and adjacent joists, supplemented by an L4x4x1/4 angle at each L5x3 brace above for a 3.5-kip vertical load.
