Construction line for a2 and ? of Figure UW-13.2 Sketch (r) and (s) BPVC VIII D1

Hi.
I need your guide to define the start or finish point of the construction line for parameters a2 and θ in Figure UW-13.2 sketch (s) BPVC Section VIII Division 1.

UW-13 (f)(6)(-b) indicates: "The dimension a2 shall be measured from the projected surface of the plate being attached as shown in Figure UW-13.2, sketch (s)." The only reference that I found in code is that this construction line must have 45 deg min.

So, I need to have clear the geometrical conditions for this construction line, to evaluate K ratio in UW-13 (f)(6)(-d).

Thank you for your advises.

Giovanny V.

Giovanny V, pick theta, find a2, or the reverse.

Regards,

Mike



The problem with sloppy work is that the supply FAR EXCEEDS the demand

Thank you Mike.

But I need some more specific. See the image below:

Giovanny V, I think it is reasonable to assume the dimension in question is subject to tp limitations as shown in Figs UW-13.2 sketches b),(c) & (d), per UW-13(f).

Mike, this is the way that I was working, thank you for you support.

Giovanny V, UW-13.2(f) requirements can be complex, but can yield benefits. Best of luck.
