About this detail

A wide-flange beam connects to symmetrical buckling-restrained braces using gusset plates and splice plates on each side. Full-depth stiffener plates, one-half inch thick typically on each side, are welded to the beam web with five-sixteenth-inch fillet welds on two or three sides as specified. The braces fasten with bolted connections featuring multiple rows of high-strength structural bolts. The entire assembly is symmetrical about the center line of the column beyond.
