About this detail

Roof fall arrest anchors mount directly to steel beams or girders with a maximum twenty-inch height extension, interrupting the steel deck as required. A three-eighths-inch full-height stiffener plate reinforces the web of the supporting beam or girder. Where a cross beam occurs within six inches of the anchor centerline, a typical beam-to-girder full-height plate connection ties the members together. Alternatively, a diagonal bottom flange brace welded with five-sixteenths fillet welds connects to the supporting beam or girder. Detail A-X provides a grade fifty flange extension plate welded with a complete joint penetration weld and three-eighths-inch fillet welds at four inches on center, both near side and far side, along with a one-and-a-half-inch minimum clearance.
