About this detail

A structural steel beam splice connection utilizes filler plates and WT shapes to accommodate differing beam depths. Top and bottom flanges feature complete joint penetration welds typically, with filler plates added where required to match flange widths and depths plus one quarter inch. A WT section cut from wide flange steel is welded to the web and flanges using fillet welds on three sides, accompanied by one-quarter-inch stiffener plates on one side as specified by the notes. Fillet weld sizes of five-sixteenths and three-sixteenths of an inch are indicated along with maximum and minimum dimension limits for the stiffener assembly.
