About this detail

A roof edge assembly is supported by steel beams and open-web steel joists. The roof deck bears over a structural steel beam and terminates at a continuous angle overhang spanning sixteen inches maximum with a three-inch minimum bearing. Two two-and-a-half by two-inch by quarter-inch angles are spaced at six feet on center maximum with the long leg vertical, attached to the joist at a panel point. A continuous quarter-inch bent plate is provided at the edge, with contractor options for alternative angle sizes on short overhangs. Fillet welds of quarter-inch size connect the structural components per the specified spacing.
