About this detail

Open-web steel joists bear on supporting steel beams with a continuous angle or bent plate at the spandrel condition, topped by a steel roof deck. At sloping supports, tapered shims are provided, and all joists are oriented vertically rather than following the roof slope. The joist bottom chord is extended at the joist nearest the column, supplied by the joist manufacturer, and left un welded in place until roofing is completed. Fillet welds of three-sixteenths and one-quarter inch size secure the assembly components according to structural requirements.
