Two-sided beam-to-beam connection details illustrate framing conditions for both beam depth differences greater than one inch and differences less than or equal to one inch, featuring shear tabs sized per plan and welded connections with a quarter-inch fillet weld. A separate continuity plate detail shows structural steel column web and flange copes with continuity plates provided on both sides of the web, with plate thickness based on the beam flanges and weld configurations per AISC specifications. Bolt spacing and edge distances follow standard AISC guidelines.
