Four case variations connect a wide flange beam to a wide flange girder using a bevel shear plate. The connection utilizes partial penetration welds with an effective throat dimension, alongside specified bolt locations. Minimum and maximum edge and spacing distances govern the placement of the shear plate relative to the face of the supporting member. Each case outlines distinct weld preparation configurations and bolt centerlines for structural steel framing integration.
