An HSS beam connects to the flange of a wide flange column using a closure plate and perimeter welds. Stiffener plates match the thickness of the HSS beam and are welded to the column web with five-sixteenths inch fillet welds. A perpendicular beam is omitted for clarity where applicable, and continuity plate connections for HSS frame beams are referenced elsewhere. A closure plate bridges the HSS beam end to the wide flange column.
