The connection includes a one-quarter-inch typical non-welded gap at the beam web transition, with fill gap demand-critical weld requirements specified for the joint. Dimensions reference the column's k-distance plus one and a half inches with a one-and-quarter-inch minimum, and twenty-degree bevels at the web cutout.
