About this detail

This structural steel detail shows a louver header support assembly anchored to a building column. The connection incorporates a WT6x32.5 shape, three-eighths-inch thick gusset plates, and five-eighths-inch diameter A307 machine bolts with custom plate washers. An HSS12x12x1/4 minimum hollow structural section serves as the louver header beyond, supporting a three-inch thick insulated metal panel and a six-inch thick louver assembly. Optional eleven-sixteenths by seven-eighths-inch slotted holes are provided in the WT section for installation purposes, requiring welding after fit-up is complete. A custom shelf angle fastens to the building column to support the mullion beyond, utilizing number twelve TEKS screws at the header.
