" Gusset 2 Point " & " Weld Conn2 " connection design locks

Angle, W tee or channel vertical braces field bolt directly to a shared gusset plate (" Gusset 2 Point ") that shop attaches to a beam. The gusset plate's corners are clipped pependicular to each brace's workline due to " Clip end operation " being set to ' Yes ' or, possibly, to ' Automatic '. This help page applies to 2-point bracing (shown) and 3-point bracing (not shown). Gusset-to-beam shop attachment is per choices made to " Weld Conn2 " or, for 2-point, " NS/FS Clip Conn2 ."

(L or WT or C vertical braces, field bolted to shared gusset, to a beam) (vertical brace " Section size " = angle, W tee or channel) (" Input connection type " = ' Vbrc plate ' or ' User defined ') (" Clip end operation " = ' Yes ' or possibly ' Automatic ')
" Gusset 2 Point " (gusset plate dimensions and location)	" Weld Conn 2 " (" Gusset to supporting member " = ' Welded ')
2-point and 3-point bracing . The connection design locks for 2-point bracing (2 braces to a shared gusset) and 3-point bracing are essentially the same. However, SDS2 connection design will not connect a 3-point gusset plate to the supporting beam with a clip angle (" NS/FS Clip Conn2 "). A 3-point gusset plate must be welded to the supporting beam (" Weld Conn2 ").
