A continuous bent plate is welded to the top flange of a steel beam as an edge form for the metal deck. Bent plate thickness is determined by dimension 'L' per the provided table, ranging from 1/4 inch to 3/8 inch. The plate is secured to the beam flange with 1/4 inch fillet welds at 12 inches on center. Metal deck terminates at the beam with a minimum bearing of 1 1/2 inches on the interior side and 2 inches on the exterior side, as referenced by architectural drawings.
