About this detail

Angle brace connections frame into steel beams with concrete fill over metal deck, shown in both parallel and perpendicular deck orientations. The angle brace uses an L6x6x1/2 angle with four 3/4-inch-diameter Nelson studs located at the troughs of the steel deck, though the angle may be omitted where a beam occurs exterior or at a frame beam as indicated on the plan. A three-eighths-inch plate with two 7/8-inch-diameter A325N bolts connects both ends of the brace unless otherwise noted, with the plate optionally field welded to the beams at the contractor's option. At frame beams, a full-height stiffener plate is provided with a width as required for two bolts, welded with a 3/16-inch fillet weld on two sides and a ten-inch minimum total weld length. Unspecified angle braces shall be L4x4x3/8 for lengths under six feet and L6x6x3/8 for lengths between six and ten feet.
