About this detail

A hollow structural section post is attached at the slab edge with a welded base plate measuring 1/2 inch by 7 inches by the post width plus 4 inches, secured using two 1/2-inch-diameter by 4-inch-long studs at 12 inches on center and three number 4 reinforcing bars at 8 inches on center. The post is centered on the elevation rail and welded directly to the steel beam where no slab is present with a 5/16-inch fillet weld. A full-height stiffener plate measuring 3/8 inch is provided at the centerline of each hollow structural section post, backed by an L7x4x1/2 by 0-foot-6-inch angle connected with two 3/4-inch-diameter A307 bolts at 3 inches. Where the post is not flush with the hoistway, two L2x2x3/8 by 1-foot-0-inch angles are provided. At locations with brackets, a 1/4-inch minimum slab edge closure plate is installed with two number 4 A706 reinforcing bars at 8 inches on center centered at each bracket.
