About this detail

A structural steel beam frames into an edge beam supporting a concrete slab or roof deck above. A connection plate fastens the framing beam to the support with standard bolts, while the bottom flange of the framing beam is coped or blocked out as required. A three-eighths-inch stiffener plate aligns with the connection plate on the far side, matching the flange width or three and a half inches, whichever is less. Alternatively, the contractor may extend the connection plate to the bottom flange and weld it directly in lieu of adding a stiffener plate, with a minimum plate thickness of three-eighths of an inch. A quarter-inch fillet weld secures the assembly.
