The connection incorporates a complete joint penetration weld at the top flange and five-sixteenths inch fillet welds typical along the web and plate intersections. A note specifies that the built-up beam weld length equals the plate length plus six inches. Four bolts fasten the framing web connection with a three-inch on-center typical spacing.
