Detailing for Steel Joists and Joist Girders [D2]

Detailing joists and joist girders is very specialized. Often structural detailers aren't familiar with the SJI code, the joist fabrication and erection processes; and the requirements. This creates difficulties and blurred lines of responsibility in coordination between structural details and joist details. With the increase in offshore detailing, this is even more prevalent. We'll provide the basics of joist placement plans and coordination requirements and help promote harmony between structural and joist erection drawings. We'll also review best practices for the flow of information and coordination.
