Bolted Steel beam/column Splice (straight joint connection) 203uc46 Structural steel fabrication. 

One thing I do when I use a mag drill is drill holes closer to the edge first so that you continually pull the drill away from the shavings and cutting oil. It keeps the bottom of the mag drill clean has a better hold. Fantastic video

Dude thank you for doing these videos more steel fabrication than welding. Def looking forward to more

Appreciate 👏 the work u guys r doing, educating and sharing knowledge on structural steel fabrication process, excepting a much more things in fabrication. Thank you 😊 👍

I was doing this last week, didn’t do a video like this homie did. Good job there.

thank you so much T M F G.......REALLY ENJOY ...shese short and to the point videos are fantastic, cheers from Florida USA

تركيز و اتقان شكرا على الإبداع.

i wish the shop i worked at was this quiet haha

Centre punch holes lot more accurate than guessing !!!!

Metric - phoeee, them damn yanks 🤣🤣

Great video, new subscriber.

On the iron worker punch, I could see you touching off to get the center of the hole, but I couldn't tell how you were zeroing in with the magnetic drill. Were you touching down first before applying the magnet? Anyway, some pretty awesome stuff on big structural members. Pretty cool to see. With much appreciation.

Why dont you centre punch the marking.on your plates then use the punch locator to make it easier and more accurate for your holes if you know what i mean

Great video! What sized bolts would you use for joining a 178 x 102 steel beam together? It has a 7.8mm flange, 4.8mm web so I thought a 10mm plate would be appropriate. The beam will only be about 3.3m and be holding up roof trusses (wooden beams would have left less head room than preferred) and will be easily strong enough for the job. The splice would be very close to one end, it will make instillation a lot easier. Cheers.

Good ❤

does that punch have a cenring point on it?

lovely, i design these splices

I don’t know for your iron worker but normally you can set the stops for it so the tip stays below the guard. This way you can hold you punch against the center point and don’t have to do the touch offs

Are you using metric over imperial?

that tape would have been in the bin 6 months ago, buy a new one and while you are at it buy an adjustable/combo square

About how much would that joint be sufficient for? Are you compromising the I beam or making it stronger.

I occasionally do this kind of installation node

what's more durable, welded or bolted?

Nice work man, thanks for sharing

Good for learning 😁👍

What drill machine did you use to drill the beam?

Sir please tell me size of beam,drill calculation

👍

Hello .. How much does the drilling machine cost in dollars .. Thank you very much .. Can the WhatsApp store buy one like it?

I would like to ask you about bolt diameter ,Sir.

Why not fish plate with some c Chanel

The machine that punches holes in metal that thick, if you could theoretically use it as a demonstration to prove the existence of God 🙏 for those struggling with the issue, everyone would be like oooohh, now I see.😅... Looking to extend the beam holding up my first floor which is also carrying the load in one point for my second floor and the floor to my attic. The guys that installed the beam put the post too close to the basement toilet. Could make it work, but, I'm leaning towards this idea. I will build the wall for the bathroom and that can take some load, and if I disguise some extra 2x4's to make thick shelves alongside the wall just in case. I'm surprised a splice as small as this would work, I had in mind 2 piece's of metal an inch thick on the sides and like a couple of feet long. I just need 4 1/2 more 🐾.

At 3.52 you laid out your flange holes using the centre line of the flange when you should be using the cntr line of your web and working out from that because your web is never cntr off your flanges

Hole size Tel me bro

Those bolts should have washers on both ends just sayin newbie
