Single Clip Angles Welded OSL ( Fabricator Settings ) (read-only)


Specifications for getting this type of standard clip angle in the model :

  • A bolted/welded single clip angle with a welded OSL shop or field welds to the supporting member (beam or column) and is designed as the supported beam's end connection when when ' Narrow Gage ' (or ' Wide Gage '), ' Welded ' (to supporting), ' Bolted ' (to supported), ' Near Side ' (or ' Far Side ' of web) and shop attach to ' Supporting ' (or ' Supported ') are specified in " Connection specifications " for an auto standard , user defined or beam-window-specified clip angle.

or

Each bolt diameter is a distinct clip angle configuration. The tabs show imperial sizes when the " Available bolt diameters " is ' Imperial '. Metric sizes are shown when the " Available bolt diameters " is ' Metric '. If " Available bolt diameters " is set to ' Both ', the   primary dimensioning " Units " set whether the tabs show imperial or metric bolt sizes.

Standard angle size: The angle section size for the specific bolt diameter tab that has been selected. The angle specified here must also be listed in the local shape file .

Attach long leg to: Supported or Supporting . This applies when a " Standard angle size " with unequal legs has been entered (for example, the long leg for L3 1/2x3x5/16 angle material is the leg that is 3 1 /2 inch in length).

Hole type in leg to supported member: Standard round or Short slot or Long slot or Oversized or User Slot #1 or User Slot #2 .

Effect on an full-featured SDS2 program: The type of hole shown here applies to the clip angle leg that attaches to the supported beam web. A full-featured SDS2 program determines the specific size of a hole based on the " Hole type . . . " shown here and the bolt diameter that has been selected as the tab.

Gage on leg to supported member: The distance (in the primary dimension " Units " or in other units ) from the outside corner of the clip angle to the center of the column of holes on the leg that bolts to the supported beam.

Gage Outstanding Leg: This is the " Gage on leg to supported member " that is entered above. Since there is only one GOL, this table has only a single column.

Effect on a full-featured SDS2 program: Submaterial marks shown here are assigned in a full-featured SDS2 program to single wide/narrow gage clip angles welded to the supporting beam or column according the gage entered above and the number of rows of bolts designated on this table.

------ Alternative angles for welding to supporting members ------

Use alternative angle section sizes: or . This applies when a single clip angle welds to the supporting beam or column. A welded-to-supporting clip angle is designed when " Attachment to supporting " is set to ' Welded '. A single clip angle is designed when " Side " is set to ' Near Side ' or ' Far Side '.

In a full-featured SDS2 program . . .

If this box is checked ( ), connection design looks at the workable flat distance on the face of the supporting member that the angle is to be welded to, then selects the angle from the alternative angles table (described below).

If the box is not checked ( ), connection design uses the " Standard angle size " that is specified for a particular bolt diameter tab .

The alternative angles table:

Workable flat distance is greater than or equal to
( >= )
Workable flat distance is less than
( < )
Angle section size

The values in the first column represent the lowest workable flat distance at which the " Angle section size" entered in a particular row will be applied.

Each value in the second column represents the largest workable flat distance at which the " Angle section size " entered in a particular row will be applied. The angle to be welded within the workable flat distance on the supporting member.
