2212.1 Connections.

2212.1.1 Column base plate. When shear and/or tensile forces are intended to be transferred between column base plates and anchor bolts, provisions shall be made in the design to eliminate the effects of oversized holes per- mitted in base plates by AISC 360 by use of shear lugs into the reinforced concrete foundation element and/or welded shear transfer plates or other means acceptable to the enforcement agency, when the oversized holes are larger than the anchor bolt by more than 1 /8 inch (3.2 mm). When welded shear transfer plates and shear lugs or other means acceptable to the enforcement agency are not used, the anchor bolts shall be checked for the induced bending stresses in combination with the shear stresses.

2212.2 Modifications to AISC 341.

2212.2.1 Section B5. Modify Section B5.2(a) as follows:

(a) The forces specified in this section need not be applied to the diagonal members of the truss diaphragms and their connections, where each diagonal bracing member resists no more than 30 percent of the diaphragm shear at each line of resistance and where these members and connections conform to the requirements of Sections F2.4a, F2.5a, F2.5b and F2.6c. Braces in K- or V- configurations and braces supporting gravity loads other than self-weight are not permitted under this exception.
