About this detail

A slab edge condition framing connection occurs at a steel beam supporting concrete over a metal floor deck. An edge angle support outrigger fabricated from an L2x2x3/16 angle is provided at each beam and spaced at a maximum of four feet on center. A diagonal kicker made from an L3x3x1/4 angle connects back to the steel beam web or bottom flange, with an option for the contractor to substitute an L3x3x3/8 angle connected to the nearest beam while maintaining the slope limit. Connection plates including a 3/8-inch by 4-inch by 1-foot-0-inch bent plate with two 3/4-inch diameter embed wedge or screw anchors secure the slab edge, with cast-in-place headed anchors permitted as alternatives. Fillet welds of 3/16-inch typified across the gusset and brace connections tie the outrigger and diagonal kicker assembly to the structural steel beam, though the contractor may substitute two 7/8-inch diameter A325 bolts instead of field welds where indicated. A continuous number five reinforcing bar runs within the concrete slab over the metal deck, and a minimum bend radius of 1.5 times the plate thickness applies to bent plates.
