About this detail

An existing structural steel beam and column meet at a brace line with new plates on each side sized per plan. An existing W8x24 diagonal brace connects below, verified in field. The beam frames into the column using an existing double angle shear connection with three rows of 3/4-inch diameter A325F bolts for W12 and W14 beams, or four rows for W16 beams. A new structural tee per plan ties into the assembly. Welds include 3/16-inch welds on three sides at the bolted side of the angle, and 1/4-inch welds at six-inch spacings typical at ends. Field investigation is required for existing mechanical, electrical, and plumbing conflicts to coordinate with added steel.
