    Connecting metal joist to existing wall

    That makes sense, thanks! I'm deciding between 4 shear connections. Which one would allow more independent movement? See attached. https://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=458fb9e7-079e-4d88-9136-02127a2bca87&file=Screen_Shot_.png

    Connecting metal joist to existing wall

    Hi Jim, thank you for your reply. My main concern is a differential settlement. I wonder which type of shear connection can prevent it.

    Connecting metal joist to existing wall

    Can I use a seat angle on the bottom flange of my joist to avoid a differential settlement?
