About this detail

A structural connection details a typical buckling-restrained braced frame at a beam and column intersection. A central gusset plate connects to the buckling-restrained braces, with the gusset thickness sized per the supplier requirements. A web doubler plate is added to the beam web, where the doubler plate thickness equals the gusset thickness plus one-quarter inch minus the beam web thickness unless determined otherwise by the supplier. Braces are positioned per plan, and all connections are fabricated in accordance with the buckling-restrained brace supplier specifications.
