About this detail

A composite coupling beam section connects concrete shear walls with embedded steel plates. The assembly incorporates slotted top and bottom flange plates sized per schedule, coupled with coupling beam web plates and composite shear wall plates. Cross ties are spaced at twelve inches along the span, while infill concrete fills the core between boundary elements. Additional features include a nine-inch by nine-inch closure plate matching the flange thickness, a centered midspan hole for concrete consolidation, and complete joint penetration welds at the flange and web connections.
