About this detail

A wide flange beam frames into a wide flange column using a shear plate welded to the column flange and bolted to the beam web. A cap plate is attached to the top of the column with five-sixteenth inch fillet welds to the column flanges top and bottom. A one-half inch plate is used for depth less than or equal to eighteen inches, while a three-quarter inch plate is used for depths greater than eighteen inches. One-quarter inch fillet welds connect the plates inside two flanges, left unwelded at the k regions.
