" Gusset One Member Perp " & " HB Conn2 " connection design locks

An HSS, pipe or tube horizontal brace can be fitted with a built-up welded tee (shown) or other end fitting (not shown). The gusset can shop weld (" HB Conn2 ") to a beam's web or flange or, if to a web, attach with a NS and/or FS clip angle (" NS/FS Clip Conn2 "). A " Gusset One Member Perp " gusset is designed when the brace frames perpendicular to the beam.

(HSS horizontal brace, end fitting to gusset, perpendicular to a beam's web or top flange)
(horizontal brace " Section size " = HSS, pipe or tube)
(" Input connection type " = ' Hbrc plate ' or ' User defined ')
(" Pipe/tube end fitting " = ' Bolted ' or ' Paddle plate ' or ' Double paddle plate ' or ' Welded ')
(" Gusset to brace connection " = ' Welded ' or ' Clip angle ')
" Gusset One Member Perp "
(gusset plate dimensions and location)

" HB Conn2 "
(" Gusset to brace connection " = ' Welded ')



" NS/FS Clip Conn2 " : When " Gusset to beam connection " is ' Clip angle ', the gusset plate field bolts to the web of the beam with a clip angle, and the brace shop bolts to the gusset plate.
" HB Conn2 " (welded) : When " Gusset to beam connection " is ' Welded ', the gusset plate shop welds to the web of the beam, and the brace field bolts to the gusset plate.
