A continuous wide-flange beam bears upon a hollow structural section column using L8x4x1/2 angles placed at each side of the column. The angles feature two 1-1/2-inch vertical short-slot holes secured with two 3/4-inch-diameter A325 bolts positioned at the bottom of the slots. Three-eighths-inch stiffener plates are welded to both sides of the HSS column. A one-inch clearance space and a one-quarter-inch shim space are maintained between the beam and column, with five-sixteenths-inch and three-sixteenths-inch fillet welds joining the connection elements.
