About this detail

A screenwall post base connection frames into primary and secondary steel beams. The hollow structural section post connects to a base plate using complete joint penetration welds, supported by three-eighths-inch plates on near and far sides matching the flange width. Four seven-eighths-inch diameter A325-TC bolts with standard holes secure the beam and plate assembly. Additional half-inch plates on each side and one-quarter-inch fillet welds reinforce the connection, with plates set against the beam web and chamfered at the beam k region. At screenwall corner post locations, the base connection orients with the plate long side in the direction of the shorter screenwall plane.
