Plan layout requirements for shear connector studs welded to the top flange of a steel beam include both double row and single row configurations with minimum edge distances of one and one-half inches, a minimum three-inch transverse spacing for double rows, and a maximum longitudinal spacing of twenty-four inches. Three-quarter inch diameter studs are specified typically unless noted otherwise on drawings. Additional stud length requirements are referenced to the steel deck schedule, and general notes direct the user to shear connector specifications.
