Help with notation on existing drawings
(OP)
I am looking at a set of existing drawings dated 1974. The steel beams have a "SC ##" designation on them that you can see in the photo. Any thoughts as to what this is? Shear studs?
The existing details don't show anything out of the ordinary graphically at least.
Thanks for any help. I haven't run across this notation before.

"SC could probably mean shear connectors"
But, looking at it the second time...I realized there is no SC designation called out for supporting girders. Why would somebody use studs for beams and not for the girders??
RE: Help with notation on existing drawings
Without any sense of scale on that picture it's hard to make sense of the design. The beams are 60' long and the girders are 20'. I can buy that the the girders may not have had sufficient reduction in size to justify the connectors.
Thanks for the quick responses.
