PROCEDURE REV A1

6.3 Type of Connection

SUBCONTRACTOR reserve the right to comment on the adequacy and types of
connections used. The practices outlined below shall be incorporated in the shop details.

Shop connections shall be bolted or welded at the Supplier's option.

If reaction values are not shown on the Arrangement Drawings, the connections shall be
designed for a minimum reaction of 50kN using a minimum of two bolts. Where this
value is exceeded, SUBCONTRACTOR Arrangement Drawings will show the connection
in detail or give the actual beam reaction in kN so that the Supplier can develop a suitable
connection. All connections shall be checked for bearing and buckling.

All skewed beam to girder connections which support equipment and/or stacks shall
have stiffened seat connections with bent plate connecting beam webs. At deep beams,
the remaining 'Tee' section shall be checked for flexure.

Beam to column connections shall be arranged to facilitate erection without the tilting of
columns. Where seated connections are used, the bottom flange of the beam shall be
connected to the seat angle. The beam web shall be connected with a side clip to the
column. In webs of a fireproofed column, top angle type in lieu of clips at seat
connections shall be used. In connection to column flanges "knifed" connections may
be used. At any seat connections, the beam set-back shall not exceed 12mm.

Column splices shall be developed for the full strength of the column, the abutting
surfaces of both the upper and the lower lift of the column being "milled".

All columns, except angle columns shall be milled to bear onto baseplates. Baseplates
shall be shop welded to columns, unless otherwise indicated on SUBCONTRACTOR
Arrangement Drawings.

The tops of columns for pipe support racks shall be "cut square" 75mm above the top of
the highest beam framing into the column to facilitate future extension unless noted on
SUBCONTRACTOR Arrangement Drawings.

Flange plates on beams and plate girders shall be shop welded, unless otherwise
indicated on SUBCONTRACTOR Arrangement Drawings. The ends of plates shall be
fully developed for the tensile value of the plate by continuous fillet welding. Intermittent
fillet welds may be used to develop horizontal shear in the centre portion of the plate
providing contact surfaces are adequately protected against corrosion due to the ingress
of moisture. Where the width of beam or girder flanges exceeds 300mm, plug welds
shall be used in addition to the above fillet welds to prevent warping of the flange plates.
Plug welds, when required, shall be spaced at a maximum of 450mm centres.

Flange plates on columns shall be shop welded.

Where beam webs cross each other at "dropped" connections, stiffener plates shall be
added on both sides of the web in the supporting beam when either beam is 300mm, or
deeper. Stiffeners shall be for the full height of the web, 10mm thick and unless noted
otherwise milled at both ends with the inside corner chamfered.

All trolley beams shall have a pair of 10mm thick stop angles bolted to the web at each
end and set back a distance equal to 1.5 times the flange width.

PAGE 10 OF 14
PROCEDURE REV A1

At all anchor bolt holes in beams for equipment, one 10mm thick stiffener plate shall be
provided on each side of each bolt hole on the anchor bolt hole side of the web. On
beams 250mm and smaller, the stiffeners shall be for the full depth of the beam web.
For beams 300mm and larger, stiffener length shall be one half of the nominal depth of
the beam and the top edge shall be milled to bear against the underside of the top flange
of the beam.

At equipment support beams, stiffeners shall be provided in the web to match the
stiffeners in the bolster above the beam. The stiffener length shall be one-half of the
nominal depth of the beam and the top edge shall be milled. Where a bolster is not
required, stiffeners shall be provided only when called for on SUBCONTRACTOR
Arrangement Drawings.

6.4 Horizontal Bracing

When the centre of a column is used as a working point with beams framing to the flange
and web of the column, bracing shall be connected to both beams.

Unless otherwise indicated, a connection with a minimum of two bolts shall be used.

"Draw" shall be used only on single angle cross-bracing. The actual computed
theoretical distance between end holes shall be reduced in accordance with the following
schedule:

For lengths up to 3m - No deduction

For lengths over 3m and up to 6m - Deduct 2mm
For lengths over 6m and up to 10m - Deduct 3mm
For lengths greater than 10 m - Deduct 5mm

These deductions shall be shown on the Supplier's details. For example: 6,429
P.P. - 3mm Draw = 6,426

The minimum thickness of gussets shall be 8mm. Holes in gussets shall be arranged to
eliminate eccentricity.

6.5 Vertical Bracing

At the intersection of a column, beam and brace, the brace shall be connected to both
beam and column. At the connection to a column flange, the working point shall be the
intersection point of the faces of the column flange and the top or bottom beam flange,
depending upon whether the brace is above or below the beam.

At the connection to a column web, the working point shall be the intersection point of
centreline of the column web and the face of the top or bottom flange of the beam.

For the connection of bracing to beams 305mm or smaller at the mid-span the working
point shall be the intersection of the horizontal centreline of the beam and the centreline
of the bay.

For the connection of bracing to beams larger than 305mm at the mid-span, the working
point shall be the intersection of a horizontal line 130mm below the top flange or 130mm
above the bottom flange and the centreline of the bay, depending on whether the brace
is above or below the beam.
