About this detail

A hollow structural section louver header connects to a building column using a WT6x32.5 shaped structural tee and three-eighths-inch thick gusset plates. Five-eighths-inch diameter A307 machine bolts fasten the assembly, with optional eleven-sixteenths by seven-eighths-inch slotted holes provided in the WT flange for installation adjustments. A five-sixteenths-inch bent plate and three-eighths-inch gusset plates tie the framing into the building column, leaving a half-inch gap. The assembly incorporates a custom shelf angle supporting three-inch thick insulated metal panels and a six-inch thick louver secured with number twelve TEKS screws. A general note designates the connection as concept-only for delegated design and deferred submittal.
