About this detail

A wide flange framing beam connects to the web of a supporting wide flange beam using a welded shear plate and high-strength bolts. The supported beam features a flange cope as required with a minimum dimension of K plus one and three-quarters inches from the end of the beam. The shear plate is typically detailed with three-inch center-to-center bolt spacing, one and three-quarter inch end distances, and two-inch clearance from the face of the web. Type N bearing connections are specified, and horizontal short slotted holes in the shear plate are permitted with hardened washers provided over the slots. If dimension A exceeds six inches, the shear plate must be extended to match the opposing shear plate.
