A stem-vertical W tee vertical brace field bolts to its gusset plate per choices made to " Brace Connection To Gusset " locks. Since the brace's " Connection type " is ' Coped flange ', the W tee's flange is cut flush to the side of the web (NS or FS) that the gusset will bolt to. The gusset plate shop attaches to a beam & column.
