K Strut Bracing
print icon

8555-02 GM Detroit Factory Zero

 

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM

With the building not being perfect at 22'6"  mid bay and 45' column to column 
This caused some of the strut bracing to be either too short or too long.

 

ROOT CAUSE

We had figured that at some point in time the supplier designed their Mod sections around where the Strut Braces had to be installed and field checked for the condition of the building

 

COURSE OF ACTION

Had to remake strut braces to make sure the mod sections were properly supported and braced.

 

LESSON FOR FUTURE PROJECTS

Convince the customer to run one parallel header in line at truss level. This would solve all of the bracing issues.
