Connects a beam to a beam with a weld; notching the secondary, which includes an option to clip the corner to avoid the primary's k-distance. Primarily created for field welded outriggers and roof frames.
Parts created
Connects a secondary beam to a primary beam using a weld and the beams need to be perpendicular to each other. This connection provides control over the size of the notch and control over the clip corner located at the top k-distance area. This connection also includes control over the weld (secondary to primary).
