About this detail

The angle brace is centered between floor joists and left unrequired at perpendicular wide-flange beams. Above, a concrete slab sits over a metal deck or roof deck, reinforced with a continuous mesh support bar and headed shear stud anchors sized per structural plans. A related top connection detail is referenced on sheet S513.
