About this detail

Full height single plate shear tab connections for W8, W10, W12, and W14 beams framing into W16 and deeper perimeter beams. The connection utilizes a one-half-inch plate, which may be rectangular optionally, welded to the supporting steel with a one-quarter-inch fillet weld. Holes are unslotted, and conditions with a distance less than four inches omit the bottom plate and bolt while adding one bolt without a slot hole. Design conforms to AISC manual requirements regarding "k" dimensions for the supporting wide flange member.
