About this detail

A steel beam frames into a supporting steel column with a steel cap plate sized per the column schedule. The beam bears on the cap plate and connects via a beam web connection plate on each side, secured with four bolts. A beam web stiffener or connection plate is welded to the supporting member. A drawing note specifies that if any bolt hole does not align, the beam must be field welded to the cap plate with a one-quarter-inch by three-inch fillet weld on both sides.
