About this detail

A steel beam frames into a steel column with a metal roof deck bearing on the structural assembly. A minimum three-quarter-inch cap plate tops the column, while a clip angle with either screwed or welded connections secures the framing per the supplier. The window system and metal studs attach to the structural elements to accommodate vertical deflection and horizontal seismic drifts. An L4x4x5/16 angle is welded with a one-quarter-inch fillet weld, maintaining a six-inch plus or minus dimension to the top of the glazing. A one-inch plus or minus gap is detailed between components, with column orientations rotated ninety degrees at similar conditions.
