About this detail

A buckling-restrained brace connects to a gusset plate anchored above the column base plate, featuring a working point at the top of the base plate. A gusset support plate provides reinforcement beneath the gusset, with a minimum thickness of one-half inch for gusset thicknesses under two inches, and three-quarters of inch for gusset thicknesses of two inches or greater. Five-sixteenth inch fillet welds attach the gusset to stiffeners on three sides top and bottom typically. Additional dimensions and layout procedures are referenced for the gusset and buckling-restrained brace.
