About this detail

An HSS 6x6x1/4 hollow structural section stanchion extends upward from the floor assembly, capped with a one-quarter-inch plate and penetrated by three one-half-inch diameter strands spaced at nine inches and two inches from the top. The stanchion aligns with window mullions per the architectural drawings and is spaced at seven feet on center maximum. Inside the lower portion of the tube, grout fills the section up to a one-half-inch diameter weep hole located just above the wearing slab and waterproofing membrane. The slab assembly includes expansion board positioned two feet from the stanchion and an architectural wearing slab over a membrane. Below the floor, a kicker brace connects to the supporting beam via three-eighths-inch stiffener plates on each side centered on the HSS, with quarter-inch fillet welds securing the connection. A note indicates that at floors without a topping slab, the first strand is located eighteen inches above the structural slab.
