About this detail

A wind screen column connection interfaces with a building column through a thermal break assembly. The connection incorporates a half-inch thick by ten-inch deep plate on each side of the thermal break secured with four bolts, utilizing polytetrafluoroethylene between plates and horizontal slotted holes sized for relative movement with three-quarter-inch maximum play and plate washers. A link beam per plan consists of two segments with a six-inch minimum clearance. The wind screen column connects via a three-eighths-inch minimum shear plate with four bolts, and beams frame in using extended shear plates with six bolts or standard shear plates with three or two bolts. A diagonal brace connects via a half-inch minimum gusset plate with a three-eighths-inch cap plate, while splice beam stubs are provided as required.
