About this detail

A wide flange beam connects to the web of a wide flange column using a welded and bolted shear plate. The shear plate is shop welded to the column flange or web, and the beam web is field bolted to the shear plate with four vertical bolts spaced at three inches center to center. Clearances of two inches are maintained from the column face to the beam end. Standard detailing notes indicate conditions with beams on each side of the column are similar, and unstated plate thicknesses, bolt sizes, or weld details refer to sheet A/S5.22.
