About this detail

A buckling-restrained brace core plate connects to a gusset plate using multiple splice plates and A490-SC bolts, maintaining a one-half-inch gap at the joint. The gusset plate ties into the column or beam flange, reinforced by stiffener plates on each side and a cap plate by the manufacturer. The core plate extends from a steel casing provided by the manufacturer and is symmetric about the centerline. Welds are executed per the buckling-restrained brace manufacturer requirements, with plate thicknesses, bolting, and additional weld information referenced on structural drawings.
