About this detail

A continuity plate with a minimum thickness 't' is installed inside the web of a wide-flange steel column, aligned with the connecting beam flange. The plate is secured using either fillet welds or complete joint penetration double-bevel welds specified as 0.7t or CJP DCW typical. A minimum one-half inch radius is provided at the corners. Fillet welds terminate a minimum of one-quarter inch from the end of the joint on both sides. Dimensions dictate minimum clearances relative to the column k-distance.
