Learn about gusset plates and their types

Users often create beam, girder, and column connections with bolts, nuts, or welds... in civil engineering. However, what Butraco wants to mention today are gusset plates. So what are gusset plates? What are their types? Let's read the useful information that Butraco provides below.

1. What is a gusset plate?

Gusset plate (also known as pile gusset plate) is the general name for a square-shaped gusset plate placed on a concrete pile head. It is to weld the two ends of the concrete pile together to enhance their strength when pressing the piles into the ground. It is also used for reinforcement in structural elements and acts as a base for rivets, bolts, or screws...

2. Characteristics and common shapes of gusset plate

Characteristics of gusset plate:

  • Weight: The weight of a gusset plate depends on the design of the structure. The current market offers a variety of weights.  
  • Size: The size of the steel gusset plate depends greatly on the beams, columns, forces, and loads of the steel structures. This ensures the force transmission from the bar to the gusset plate is secure.
  • Below are the common profiles of gusset plates:
  • Square, rectangular, or trapezoidal: These are the most common types of steel gussets, which are cut from sheet metal and punched with holes to pass bolts through. They are often used for simple connections and enhance effective force transmission. 
  • Triangular, circular, or oval: These types of steel gussets have more complex profiles, which are cut from sheet metal as specified by the drawings.

3. Types of gusset plates

The gusset plates will be classified by their thickness and size. Some common types of gusset plates today include:

  • Gusset plate size 100 x 100 x 10
  • Gusset plate size 200 x 200 x 10
  • Gusset plate size 250 x 250 x 10
  • Gusset plate size 300 x 300 x 10
  • Gusset plate size 350 x 350 x 10

In addition, the size of a gusset plate can be specified by customers, for example, an 8mm thick gusset plate,... to best suit a certain structure.
