About this detail

Connection configurations for skewed steel beams framing into supports at varying angles. A three-eighths-inch by four-inch by six-inch plate is specified at the top flange, required only where no deck is present and the beam cope exceeds the gauge distance. Fillet welds of varying sizes from five-sixteenths to one-half inch are detailed according to the specific skew angle range, along with beveled plate ends at the face of support for angles between fourteen and twenty-two degrees. Gauge distances of six inches and ten inches are designated for skews up to fifty-five and sixty degrees respectively.
