Steel beam sittng on concrete wall.
Top of concrete pilaster top of concrete wall figure 3 8 girder and beam seats provide support from concrete walls be placed on a support pilaster figure 3 8 integrated into the foundation wall flush or dropped.
Girders can also be dropped by placing them into a notch in the foundation wall called a beam pocket figures 3 9 and 3 10.
I stabilize basement walls with steel i beams placed vertically against the wall and spaced anywhere from 3 to 6 feet apart.
How to build a wall and pour in place concrete caps for wall duration.
3 a bolted connection between the shear plate angles.
To make the bracket even stronger the fabricator welded a diagonal steel gusset to both legs.
When the concrete is poured 2 anchor bolts are embedded into the concrete inside the beam pocket.
2 a shear tab or angles welded to the embed plate.
I place each i beam tight against the wall hold it plumb and brace it in place with a 2x10 block or a piece of 3x3 1 4 inch angle iron lag bolted into the joists above figure 4.
The total load on the beam will be 50 of the joists on both sides and assuming a simple span with the end reactions being split 50 50 on the concrete walls that carry the beam.
In my experience the most common connection is.
The i beam contacts the wall wherever the wall is farthest out usually in the middle for block walls and at the top for poured walls.
Parallel to the wall or perpendicular to it.
The l shaped bracket was made from 1 2 inch thick steel stock 6 inches wide.
Concrete column with steel beam connection by anchor bolts duration.
The vertical leg which would rest against the foundation wall was 12 inches long and the horizontal leg that attached to the girder was 4 inches long.
Steel beam on top of the wall or into the side.
The preferred method of installing and attaching a steel beam to a concrete wall is as follows.
