I need details for steel column splices welded or bolted. References or autocad blocks will be very useful. Thank you very much!

Boy oh boy, that request would open you up to a bunch of different types of files and drawings. There are so many different ways to make a column splice for structural steels. And they all would depend greatly on the loads that the joint will be subject too. You need to find a copy of the Manual of Steel Construction Ninth edition (or newer if its out, mine is the ninth), from the AISC 'American Institute of Steel Construction. This book will show you quite a few different connection options, welded and bolted. You will need to make drawings from the dimensions and details you see in the book. One other thing, you might try to find a manual for steel detailing, the seventh edition of the above book had a section to show detailing dimensions for different steel elements, dependant on the size and shape of the member itself.
