An L8x4x1/2 angle running six inches long connects the metal deck assembly to the structural support, maintaining a maximum one-inch deck opening and zero to three inches of typical clearance. A structural channel frames the deck opening with a five-sixteenths inch fillet weld connecting the angle to the top flange, and five-sixteenths inch welds securing the channel web to the angle. A secondary connection utilizes three-sixteenths inch fillet welds at the channel web to angle interface. The assembly accommodates floor and roof deck penetrations parallel to supporting steel beams.
