transfer beam with column web perpendicular
transfer beam with column web perpendicular
(OP)
Hello all,
I am designing a connection for a transfer beam whose web is at 90 degree angle to the column which rests on top. I am looking to distribute the load using a base-plate and two(?) stiffeners within the transfer beam. I would like to make sure that the base plate is sufficiently stiff in order to evenly distribute the load, and in turn am wondering if someone can point me to some specifications on the requirements. (side notes; the column web by itself is insufficient to carry the load, the connection is assumed to be a pin, column = W12x72 with 500k load, transfer beam = W33x241 loaded at 5' from edge)
Thanks,
G.S

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.
