This connection details a steel joist bearing onto a tilt-up concrete wall panel using a steel ledger sized per plan or schedule. A four-by-four-by-three-quarters-inch by one-foot-zero-inch bearing angle supports K-series joists, while a six-by-four-by-seven-eighths-inch by one-foot-zero-inch bearing angle supports long-span (LH/LLH) joists. Boundary fasteners secure the assembly to the concrete panel per plan. The joist manufacturer designs the seat to transfer axial loads as required, with a wood nailer held back accordingly and welded connections to the ledger or ledger splice plate.
