About this detail

A structural steel davit base mounts onto a supporting steel beam sized per plan at a minimum W12 section. Three half-inch thick stiffener plates weld to the beam web and flanges with typical quarter-inch fillet welds and complete joint penetration welds at the top and bottom flanges. Connection plates with a half-inch minimum thickness secure incoming framing using a type C1 connection. The davit base provided by others aligns with the beam centerline and references loading diagrams for structural capacity.
