About this detail

A chevron brace bottom connection frames into a beam. The assembly incorporates a gusset plate attached to the top flange of the beam, stiffened on both sides with one-half inch thick stiffener plates welded three sides typical. Bolt groups connect the brace members to the gusset plate at an approximately ninety degree angle. Additional stiffener plates are provided in the z-region where required per the connection schedule, with fillet weld sizes specified based on material thickness. Section cuts B-B and A-A detail the plate orientations and weld configurations along the beam web and stiffeners.
