About this detail

These steel framing details illustrate beam-to-column connections using shear plates and optional top and bottom stiffener plates. The supported beam frames into either the flange or the web of the wide flange column, utilizing a typical shear plate connection with bolted webs. For web connections requiring stiffening, three-eighths-inch thick top and bottom stiffener plates with cropped corners are welded to the column web and flanges with three-sixteenths-inch fillet welds. Field welds and column centerlines are indicated per structural plans.
