" NS/FS Clip Conn2 " connection design locks
" NS/FS Clip Conn2 " gusset clip angles for shop bolting a vertical brace gusset plate to the beam in a vertical brace to beam & column framing situation shop bolt to the beam and can either shop weld or shop bolt to the gusset plate. To get clip angles on the gusset to beam, the gusset to column needs clip angles . To get clip angles on the gusset to column, the beam to column needs clip angles. If the gusset to column is a shear tab or end plate , the gusset welds to the beam. The " Gusset to beam clips " connection specification sets the default. |

Clip angle

Long leg to ( not depicted ):
Connection to supported (gusset clip angle, NS or FS, leg welded or bolted to the gusset plate) :
When " Connection specifications " > " Gusset to clip connection " is set to ' Welded ', you get a " Weld size " entry field, but no options for bolting:
Weld size ( weld ): The weld size used to shop weld the " NS Clip Conn2 " or " FS Clip Conn2 " clip angle to the gusset plate (see example ).
When " Gusset to clip connection " is set to ' Bolted ', you get the following " Connection to supported " options for shop bolting the brace to the gusset plate. " Connection to supported " settings can be different than the entries made to " Connection to supporting " fields.
Bolt diameter ( not depicted ):

Top vertical edge distance:
Bottom vertical edge distance:
Connection to supporting (vbr to bm & col, gusset clip NS or FS, leg that shop bolts to the beam) :
Bolt diameter ( not depicted ):
diameter of shop bolts for the leg to the beam
Vertical to 1st hole ( vert to 1st ):
Vertical hole spacing ( spacing ): The entry made here can be one vertical spacing distance or variable hole spacing. See the video and table below.
VIDEO Variable hole spacing can be typed to locked " Vertical hole spacing " fields found in leaves named " Shear Tab "; " Bent Plate " " End Plate " and " NS/FS Clip ." (Recorded in SDS2 Detailing , v2016.)
