Steel Design - Weld access holes (1979 UBC)
Steel Design - Weld access holes (1979 UBC)
(OP)
Three story moment frame building built under the 1979 UBC. Most of the weld access holes are flame cut, quite large, and quite UGLY. Building is in Washington State. Anyone remember what the requirements relating to weld access holes were back in 1979 +/-?? Was UGLY the norm back in the day?

In the high rise I participated in back in 1980, we never considered this detail in the drawings as far as I remember.
