About this detail

An exterior steel column bears on a seven-sixteenths-inch steel base plate set over a two-inch non-shrink grout layer atop a reinforced concrete pier and footing. Three sets of ties are spaced within the top five inches of the concrete pier. Cast-in-place anchor bolts with a minimum embedment of sixteen inches secure the base plate, featuring heavy hex nuts top and bottom with a half-inch by four-inch by four-inch plate washer typical at each anchor. Stiffener plates are welded per each side of the column. All concrete reinforcement is epoxy coated per architectural notes, with adjacent exterior slab or grade meeting the assembly.
