AISC Slotted Holes Question
AISC Slotted Holes Question
(OP)
Does anyone know if there is a rule that states you cannot slot the hole in the beam and slot the hole in the support angle or plate? Both slots would be horizontal.
I have a construction fix question and it doesn't allow time for fabricating a new connection. Welding is also difficult in this case - and even if I did weld it I still need some bolts for erection purposes.

This requirement doesnt' apply to short slots or oversized holes. Additionally, if the long slot is on the outer ply you need to provide a plate washer or continuous bar with standard holes that will completely cover the slot.

As mentioned above, long-slotted holes are only allowed in one ply.
