" Gusset To Two Beams Square " & " Brace Connection To Gusset " connection design locks

The gusset plate for an angle horizontal brace to a beam-beam corner is designed per " Gusset To Two Beams Square " and " Brace Connection To Gusset " locks. Depending on the framing situation, the gusset may field bolt directly to each beam's flange, or it may field bolt with clip angles to each beam's web.

(L horizontal brace, shop bolted to gusset, to a beam-beam corner)
(horizontal brace " Section size " = angle)
(" Clip end operation " = ' No ' or possibly ' Automatic ')
(" Input connection type " = ' Hbrc plate ' or ' User defined ')
(" Stagger bolts " = or )
(" Locate on neutral axis " = ' Yes ' or ' No ')
" Gusset cut " = ' Clipped ' or ' Coped '
" Gusset To Two Beams Square "
(" Gusset cut " = ' Clipped ')
" Gusset To Two Beams Square "
(" Gusset cut " = ' Coped ')

" Brace Connection To Gusset "
(holes for shop bolting the brace to the gusset)

The corner of the gusset that the angle horizontal brace frames across is square (not cut) -- hence the name " Gusset To Two Beams Square ."

The horizontal brace shop bolts to the gusset plate, and the gusset plate field bolts to each of the two beams. If the brace frames to beams' webs, " NS/FS Clip Conn1 & 2 " locks control the field bolting. " HB Conn1 & 2 " locks control field bolting for a brace to two beams' top flanges.
