About this detail

A buckling restrained brace connects to a wide-flange steel column and beam assembly. The connection features a gusset plate with reinforcement plates on both sides and a pin connection with a specified clevis radius. One-half-inch stiffener plates are welded to each side of the column web and beam web, respectively. Five-sixteenth-inch fillet welds are specified at the reinforced gusset plate, with welds wrapping around the end of the gusset. Notes require line-boring the hole for the pin after welding the gusset reinforcement plate, and maintaining approximately equal gaps between the pin plate and adjacent framing.
