About this detail

A buckling-restrained braced frame base plate connection anchors into a concrete foundation slab. A 2-1/2 inch thick Grade 50 base plate rests over a 2-inch nonshrink grout layer, supported by an embed plate with welded headed studs and lower anchor plates. Four 2-inch diameter ASTM F1554 Grade 105 anchor rods secure the base with 5/8x4x0'-4" washer plates featuring standard holes. The column flange and web connections utilize complete joint penetration welds detailed per AWS D1.8-DCW. Anchor rod nuts are specified to be tightened only after washer plate welds are complete, with dimension "d" set by the buckling-restrained brace manufacturer.
