About this detail

A structural steel column connects to a supporting member via a base plate sized per the structural column schedule and secured with four bolts whose diameter matches the schedule table. Four stiffener plates designated L1 are placed on each side where required, matching the width of the column flange and welded with five-sixteenths inch fillet welds. Additional stiffener plates designated T1 are fitted to bear, matching the width of the beam flange with a larger plate used if required by incoming beam connections. The finished column end, stiffener plates, and base plate conform to AISC specifications with specified gauges and clearances.
