This structural drawing details steel beam-to-column connections using wide flange and hollow structural section members. The assembly incorporates shear tabs with specified bolt sizes, cap plates at the top of columns sized relative to flange thicknesses, and continuity plates welded to flanges. Fillet welds secure the plates and connections as indicated on the plan. The configurations cover beam connections to both wide flange and hollow structural section columns.
