About this detail

This structural detail outlines the layout procedure for steel gusset plates at braced frame connections for both single and double rows of bolts at strong and weak axis column orientations. The procedure establishes the location of the first bolt line along the work line, defines inner and outer bolt row offsets, and details bolt hole patterns using standard hole size, spacing, and edge distance parameters. Minimum weld lengths to the beam and column are verified along with gusset edge widths perpendicular to the work line. Dual details illustrate double-row bolt configurations at strong axis columns alongside single-row bolt configurations at weak axis columns.
