About this detail

A typical braced frame connection at a steel column web condition utilizes a gusset plate and beam connection. The assembly features plates on each side with top and bottom thickness matching the beam flange thickness plus one-quarter inch. Welds are specified to develop gusset capacity, with demand critical complete joint penetration welds used on top and bottom plates. Continuity plates are clipped with a typical one-inch radius and welded with fillet welds sized per the plate thickness formula, or alternatively using a demand critical complete joint penetration weld at the contractor's option.
