LCC/CCOS Lally/Steel Column Caps

Lally column caps and steel column caps provide adequate bearing length for larger girder reactions.

Material

• LCC — 12 gauge; CCOS — 7 gauge

Finish

• LCC — Simpson Strong-Tie^® gray paint; CCOS — G90 galvanized

Installation

• Use all specified fasteners; see General Notes.
• LCC — Fit the lally column cap over the lally column and attach to the girder.
• CCOS — Attach steel column cap to column end plate with (4) Simpson Strong-Tie Quik Drive^® XQ112S1224 self-tapping screws (provided) and attach to girder. Install with 5/16"-hex driver.

Typical CCOS5.50 Installation connecting a 3-ply LVL and a steel column

1. Loads may not be increased for short-term loading.
2. Allowable loads are determined using the lowest of the bearing loads using F_c-perp equal to 425 psi for SPF, 625 psi for DF and 700 psi for LVL/PSL/LSL.
3. Loads are for a continuous beam.
4. Spliced conditions for the LCC must be detailed by the Designer to transfer tension loads between spliced members
   by means other than the lally column. The splice condition load is 6,750 lbs per beam side for LCC must be evenly loaded.
5. To achieve lateral loads, the LCC pipe must be welded to the column with an 1/8" fillet weld around the entire pipe.
6. The CCOS must be attached to the column cap plate with (4) Quik Drive XQ112S1224 self-tapping screws through the end plate and into the bottom of the CCOS. Max column cap plate thickness = 1/2".
7. All pipe columns need to be designed by a qualified Designer. CCOS minimum column diameter is 3".
8. CCOS caps can resist out-of-plane (F₂) forces up to 2200 lbs. provided the beam is braced to resist torsional rotation.
9. NAILS: 16d = 0.162" dia. x 3 1/2" long, 10d = 0.148" dia. x 3" long.
