S002
Seismic bracing connection with cover plates.
The bracing can reach any type of element: beams, columns, other bracings, etc. This landing element will not be checked.
An in-pipe welded plate will be placed centered in the profile. This plate will be aligned with the gusset plate of the landing element and two cover plates will do the connection.
