About this detail

A braced frame column connects to a steel base plate resting on a concrete pier with a two-inch layer of non-shrink grout. The steel base plate is anchored to the concrete pier by cast-in anchor rods with bottom bearing plates. A buckling restrained brace, supplied by the brace manufacturer, frames into the column and base plate assembly with welded connections and three-eighths-inch typical stiffener plates. A concrete slab on grade abuts the concrete pier on both sides. Fillet welds of five-sixteenths-inch size join the structural members, with welds terminated short of ratholes and designated as demand critical welds.
