About this detail

A heavy steel beam-to-column moment connection at Level 3 features a Type C1 connection with a three-quarter-inch plate whose width extends to the center of the vertical stiffeners. Three-sixteenth-inch fillet welds secure the components, while complete joint penetration welds tie the beam top flange near side and far side. Four additional number eight bars at five feet zero inches long are spaced at six inches on each face at the three-quarter-inch plate, extending six inches below the top of concrete. Stiffener plates measuring three-quarters by five and five-eighths by thirty inches are attached near side and far side with one-quarter-inch fillet welds. A shear lug similar to detail with a one by twenty-four by three-foot plate and a five-three-quarter by sixteen by two-foot plate is shimmed as required, backed by two number eight by five-foot deformed bar anchors at sixteen-inch gauge typical.
