About this detail

A typical section of a built-up wide flange member detailing the web, top flange, and bottom flange dimensions along with a comprehensive schedule of built-up wide flange beam marks, depths, and plate sizes. The edge beam connection detail features a slab or roof deck bearing on a wide flange edge beam with a connection plate and a three-eighths inch stiffener plate aligned with the connection plate on the far side. Where a concrete slab does not exist at the edge beam, the stiffener plate or connection plate extends to the full depth and is welded on three sides. Splices between plates in plate girders require complete joint penetration welds using E80XX electrodes for plates with a yield strength of sixty-five ksi.

1 1/2" MAX, 1/4 1/4 NOTES: 1. AT LOCATIONS WHERE A CONCRETE SLAB DOES NOT EXIST AT EDGE BEAM, THE STIFFENER PLATE OR CONNECTION PLATE SHALL BE EXTENDED TO FULL DEPTH AND WELDED ON THREE SIDES. 2.
