About this detail

A structural steel moment connection between floor beams and a steel column incorporates top flange continuity plates and bolted shear tabs. The connection features a continuity plate at the top flange sized per the flange thicknesses, welded to the column web and flange with five-sixteenth-inch fillet welds under backing. Shear tabs utilize standard holes at the upper two bolt locations and horizontal long slotted holes for the remainder of the bolts. Additional elements include a five-eighths-inch bar for intersecting beams, weld access holes, and splice plates sized to the beam width minus one and a half inches.
