Specifying Structural Steel Connection Design
Just as an author of a book is communicating ideas when a book is written, so to is the structural engineer who is showing the contractor what to construct to comply with the engineer's intent. The tools of the engineer to communicate these instructions are the drawings and specifications comprising the construction documents. This information must be clear and concise and in sufficient detail to afford the contractor every opportunity to properly interpret the designer's intent. The type and amount of information that is required to properly specify the connection design for a structural steel project can be quite complex depending on the type of structure being built. This paper will describe how to properly convey the information needed by the steel fabricator and erector to connect the steel frame together.
