Flange Brace Connection - Shear Plate tab

Setting	Description
General	Side Selection ? Sets the side to either connect shape or support plate. Positoin Selection ? Sets the web side of the shape to be connected (Left or Right side), which is to be used for attaching the web plate. When Both sides is selected, a plate is attached to both sides of the web. Thickness ? Sets the thickness to sheer plate. Vertical Offset ? Sets offset of the plate to the shape center.
Longitudinal Spacing	Number ? Sets the number of bolts to be placed on the X axis. Edge Distance (w1) ? Sets the distance from the start of the shape to the center of the first bolt. Edge Distance (w2) ? Sets the distance from the end of the shape to the center of the last bolt. Distance Between (w3) ? Sets the distance between the center of the bolts. Note: Enabled for more than one Number of bolts. Slot Length ? Sets the slot length.
Transverse Spacing	Number ? Sets the number of bolts to be placed on the Y axis. Edge Distance (g1) ? Sets the distance from the edge to the center of the first bolt. Edge Distance (g2) ? Sets the distance between the center of the bolts. Distance Between (g3) ? Sets the distance between the center of the bolts.
Bolts	Bolt Type ? Sets the bolt style from the drop-down list. Diameter ? Sets the hole diameter of the selected bolt from the drop-down list of bolt diameter table. Workloose ? Sets the clearance between bolt and hole diameter. Additional Length ? Sets an additional length to the bolts extension outside the nut. Turn ? When checked, the bolt direction is inverted. Available when not welded. Weld ? When checked, the shapes are welded, instead of bolting. Note: When set to Weld, disables the Bolts and Spacing settings.
Weld Settings	Weld Style ? Displays the weld style to be used, one selected from the drop-down list. The Weld option must be on to enable the Weld Style drop-down list. Thickness ? Sets the value of the welding thickness of the style to create different thicknesses with identical default settings
Options	From Edge ? When checked, the vertical offset is measured from upper edge shape to upper edge web plate. Enables next two settings. Lower Edge ? When checked, the vertical offset refers to the lower edge of shape and web plate. Up to 1st Bolt ? When checked, the vertical offset doesn't refer to the edges of the web plate but to the center of the first drill hole.
