I like to know which is the best way to connect horizontal diagonal bracing to beam and column. A beam is connected to column flange with clip angle on each side of beam welded and bolted to column flange. Beam W10x33 Column W14X90 Diagonal bracing double angle 4x4x.5

See AISC 13th Ed page 13-6 for an illustration. (or in the LRFD 3rd Ed. on page 13-7] If you are designing steel, you need the AISC Steel Construction Manual. Generally, I don't separate connections for shear and lateral, since they have to act in concert.
