About this detail

A steel joist with 5-inch cantilevered bearing ends is supported by a steel beam with full-depth stiffeners at joist bearing locations. Continuous 6"x4" HSS5x5x1/2" sections and continuous 1/4" bent plates tie the framing together, with quarter-inch welds specified at the HSS-to-joist ends. A 1-inch plus-or-minus gap accommodates vertical deflections and seismic drifts alongside drift track connections provided by the supplier. Additional components include steel stud framing, soffit studs, and HSS5x5x3/8" blocking between joists as required by architectural layouts.
