About this detail

A continuous one-quarter-inch bent closure plate ties into a steel beam supporting metal deck and curtain wall framing. Three-eighths-inch by four-inch-tall stiffener plates align with each curtain wall mullion at four-foot-zero-inch on center, with the first plate located a maximum of six inches from the bent closure plate ends. The metal deck is puddle-welded to the bent closure plate as indicated in the schedule, featuring three-sixteenth-inch fillet welds. An angle brace consisting of an L3x3x1-4 member provides horizontal and diagonal support at four-foot-zero-inch maximum spacing, aligning with the intersecting beam at every other location. The steel beam connects via a shear plate with welds and fasteners per the typical non-frame beam connection schedule, and the connection plate extends full depth and is welded to the bottom flange per the connection schedule.
