Please refer to attached.
Per detail A on structural sheet S-203 the gusset plate is to be 1'-4" tall by 10" wide. Midwest steel has made some of the
gusset plates 9" wide in lieu of the 10" as designed. Midwest Steel has confirmed that the height of the gusset plate has
been exceeded the designed. Midwest steel has also confirmed that the gusset will extend past the edge of the base plate
in both the 9" in 10" dimensions.
Please confirm a 9" gusset plate for these situations is acceptable.
Suggestion
Answer Date Answered: 11/5/2018

Sam,
I inadvertently made the bottom gussets on some of the vertical braces with a 9” wide gusset plate in lieu of a 10” wide
gusset plate. (reference A/S203)
In all of these situations, I have exceeded the 1-4 vertical dimensions but shorted the horizontal dimension. (note,
currently at 9” wide gussets, the plates extend off the base plate. If a 10” wide gusset is to be used, the gusset would
extend even further off the base plate.)
Please confirm the 9” wide gussets at the bottom of the columns is acceptable as submitted and approved. Currently
the gussets will be shop welded to the base plates with 7” of weld on each side. I have attached the returned
submittal for reference.
