About this detail

A typical base plate connection for buckling-restrained braced frame columns features a supporting schedule specifying breadths, widths, thicknesses, bolt counts, diameters, spacings, and grades. The steel column connects to a heavy base plate welded with complete joint penetration and double-bevel welds typical, featuring centered gridline intersections and a grout hole sized equivalently to the anchor rod hole for columns larger than W10. Anchor bolts are positioned at specified 'S' spacings along orthogonal grid lines with holes and washer plates sized per AISC Manual Table 14-2. The associated schedule provides specific engineering values for various column sections such as W18X97, W18X311, W18X258, W18X130, W18X119, and W14X370, utilizing F1554 Grade 105 anchor bolts.
