" Brace Connection to Gusset " connection design locks

A stem-vertical W tee vertical brace field bolts to a shared 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 field bolts to the gusset. The shared gusset shop attaches to a column.

VIDEO In a full-featured SDS2 program, a stem-vertical W tee vertical brace has its " Connection type " set to ' Coped flange ' and its " Side of gusset " set to ' Near side ' then to ' Far side '. (Recorded in SDS2 Detailing , v2016.)

(stem-vertical WT vertical braces, field bolted to shared gusset, to a column) (vertical brace " Section size " = W tee) (" Stem orientation " = ' Vertical ')   (" Stem direction " = ' Down ' or ' Up ') (" Input connection type " = ' Vbrc plate ' or ' User defined ') (" Connection type " = ' Coped flange ') (" Side of gusset " = ' Near side ' or ' Far side ')
" Brace Connection To Gusset " (hole pattern for field bolts)	The brace's work line runs through the bolt column nearest the tee flange. The gusset can shop weld to the column (" Weld Conn 2 ") or can shop bolt with a clip angle (" NS/FS Clip Conn2 ") Related locks : Gusset 2 Point Brace Connection To Gusset Wtee Weld Conn2 NS/FS Clip Conn2 (alternative to " Weld Conn2 ")
