JP Full depth special (185)
JP Full depth special (185) connects two beams with a full depth shear tab. The shear tab is welded to the main beam web and flanges, and bolted to the secondary beam web. The secondary beam can be leveled or sloped. A stiffener plate can be created on the opposite side of the main beam web.
