Diagonal bracing in metal buildings is critical . They provide support for wind loads or other
longitudinal loads, such as those created by an overhead crane in the completed structure . Many
times additional temporary bracing is needed to stabilize the structure during erection . The erector
should review this requirement, and the erector should provide any additional bracing . On some
smaller buildings, diagonal bracing is not needed for the building design, so the erector must
furnish any erection bracing needed .
