This document provides calculations for joint connections in a transfer truss between floors 3 to 5 of an AIG tower. It includes member size and force data, plate thickness calculations, and weld design checks for a brace to gusset plate connection and a gusset plate to top/bottom chord connection. The calculations show that the weld designs meet the required strength criteria with stress ratios below 1.
