Moment Connection Shear Tab / Single Plate Beam-to-Column Bolted Connection

About this detail

This connection detail joins steel beams of differing depths to opposite sides of a column flange using a bolted shear tab and welded moment connections. The shear tab thickness equals the beam web thickness plus one-quarter inch, with bolt number and size specified per plan. Continuity plates are installed at the top and bottom flanges, sizing them to use the larger of the two flange thicknesses, TF1 or TF2. A second row of bolts is added as required per plan, maintaining a typical two-inch spacing and a three-inch minimum dimension. Where slopes are less than three inches, a bottom plate is provided as shown, with continuity plates welded to the top and bottom flanges typically unless otherwise noted.
