A bent plate connects the skewed beam to the column flange and web with a five-sixteenths inch fillet weld applied on three sides. The bent plate thickness matches the shear plate specified in the typical beam-to-column flange and web connection details. A maximum skew angle of forty-five degrees is accommodated on the flange and thirty degrees on the web, maintaining a three-inch minimum clearance. Work points define the intersecting centerlines for the incoming structural steel members.
