About this detail

A wide flange beam connects to the flange of a supporting wide flange girder using a bolted shear tab welded to the girder face. The supported beam flange is coped at the top or bottom as required to clear the connection, maintaining a minimum dimension based on the AISC K-distance plus one-half inch. A full-depth connection plate is provided on the girder web, supplemented by an additional one-half-inch thick stiffener plate on the opposite side when required by framing conditions. Bolts and shear plate thickness are sized per the typical bolted shear plate schedule, with specific edge distances and weld sizes detailed for three-sided welds.
