About this detail

A structural detail utilizes heavy splice plates and high-strength fully tensioned structural bolts for a typical steel column splice connection. The upper and lower wide-flange steel columns align along a centerline with filler plates provided as required to match the splice plate width. Splice plates attach to the column flanges with bolt rows spaced uniformly at two and three inches on center, supplemented by vertical slotted holes in the splice plate at the upper column. Web connections incorporate web welds sized per the structural schedule, with five-sixteenth-inch welds applied on three sides at the contractor's option in lieu of shop bolts in the lower column web. All bolts are fully tensioned, and the contractor provides all erection and stability aids.
