Proper gusset and connecting plate on HSS vertical bracing connection

I've come up with this issue with engineering more than one time when doing connection design, so I come here to hear from any guidance or advice with this, as I haven't found any detail showing the proper (or advised) way of detailing connections like this.

All 3 options will have a small eccentricity and a corresponding moment in one of the connecting members, but the question is, which option is the most proper for cases like this?

(I've added different colors to easy identification of members. Light gray is the plate welded to the HSS. Dark gray is the gusset plate)

  • Option A, Gusset plate aligned with supporting member CL. Connecting Plate offset on the HSS.
  • Option B, Both gusset plate and connecting plate offset, but interface between both, aligned with supporting member CL.
  • Option C, HSS and connecting plate, aligned with supporting member CL. Gusset plate is offset.

Taking fresh from the Houston heat

Found this buddy taking cool from the tiles while walking near my office. We starred each other and then I continued my walk 😁

Houston Improv - After show picture

I want to go on late June to see Craig Robinson. As I've never been to Houston Improv before, does anybody knows if it's common that you can meet the comedians after the show outside the venue for a picture or do they leave through another exit?

Smartwatch recommendation

I used to be a Samsung person, but now I've quitted and moved to a Vivo phone, my Galaxy Watch 5 Pro it's no longer compatible with it, so I'm looking for new options.

I've thinking about it and I've realized that I don't give a hard use to them, so I'm looking forward a smartwatch with good battery life, that can accurately track steps or casual workouts, with a good GPS and that has the feature to read/answer messaging apps.

All recommendations are welcome
