About this detail

A wide flange beam connects to a framing column using a one-half-inch shear tab extended down to the bottom-most continuity plate, utilizing unslotted bolt holes. Continuity plates are installed horizontally inside the column flanges aligned with the beam flanges, with additional plates added if the dimension exceeds four and one-half inches. A one-quarter-inch fillet weld secures the assembly components. The connection accommodates W8, W10, W12, and W14 beams as specified in the structural plan.
