About this detail

A seismic tie connection occurs at a hollow structural section column framing wide flange beams. A one-piece shear plate passes completely through a slotted hollow structural section column, with a maximum slot width defined as the plate thickness plus one-eighth inch. The column features a cap plate at the roof level and a column splice at the floor level as required to accommodate the passing plates. High-strength bolts connect the wide flange beams to the through-plate using a typical three-inch center-to-center vertical spacing. The connection accommodates one-way and two-way seismic ties where indicated on the structural plans.
