Hello you lovely People/Engineers
Column Transition Detail Query
I've attached some typical details my company uses for column transitions,
* Splice Detail Type 3 - When a column on the bottom goes from a bigger column to smaller column
* Splice Detail Type 4 - When a column on the bottom goes from a smaller column to a bigger column
My question is, for Splice Detail Type 4, we have a note on our drawing (Highlighted in Yellow), "Ties for Column Above and Below to Extend Through Transition". Is there a particular reason for this as we don't specify it for Splice Detail Type 3 (The area highlighted in blue).
Any help would be appreciated. For my own understanding, I like to understand why things are the way they are, not just look at the drawing and read off it.
Regards
