The American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) has released AISC Design Guide 29, Vertical Bracing Connections–Analysis and Design, providing information on common bracing systems and structural principles. The lower bound theorem of limit analysis and uniform force method are used to address brace-to-gusset connections, orthogonal and nonorthogonal connections, as well as chevron or K-bracing, eccentric braces, and gusset plate stability. More than 12 complete design examples are included with all applicable state limits identified. To download the guide, visit www.aisc.org/dg[1].
