A bent steel plate acts as a closure plate spanning from a metal roof deck to a steel beam support, with plate thicknesses sized by overhang dimension according to the provided table. A three-sixteenths inch fillet weld with two-inch length spaced at twelve inches typical connects the assembly to the steel beam. A minimum bend radius of one point five times the plate thickness is maintained at the vertical leg of the bent plate. Clearances are specified at three-quarters inch minimum gap at brick veneer, curtain wall, or steel stud framing, and one and one-quarter inch minimum gap at precast framing with bypass framing as required per architectural drawings.
