About this detail

A framing connection joins a beam to a girder web using a WT shape or built-up plate option made of ASTM A572 Grade 50 steel. The WT web thickness matches the shear tab thickness per the schedule on the reference sheet. Where connections occur on either side of the girder web, a backing plate with thickness per the reference schedule is provided on the backside of the WT. The beam web is coped around the girder flange and WT shape as required, maintaining a minimum one-and-a-half-inch clearance and a typical one-quarter-inch depression depth per plan. Bolt counts correspond to equivalent wide flange depths for depressions greater than five inches, with a minimum of one bolt provided for smaller dimensions. Fillet welds of five-sixteenths inch are specified at built-up members and connection assemblies where indicated.
