This moment connection joins a wide flange beam to a column using full-depth flange plates welded to the column web and flanges. The flange plates are sized at 1.4 times the beam flange thickness and are attached with 5/8-inch fillet welds on all sides. A web plate, sized at 1.4 times the beam web thickness, is bolted to the beam web with a variable number of rows of bolts spaced at 3 inches on center. The bolt pattern utilizes a common gauge with a 1 1/2-inch edge distance and spacing. A 1-inch minimum clearance is maintained to accommodate potential brace connections, with the location adjusted as necessary.
