When drawing a detail of a beam-to-column single-plate shear connection, the plate is not located on the center line of the column. Why is this, and how far is it off set?

What will be an ideal response?


For the detail of a beam-to-column single-plate shear connection, the plate is not located on the center line of the column because for the center line of a beam to be aligned with the center line of its supporting column, the shear plates must be off set a distance of one-half of the beam web thickness on one side or the other of the center line of the column
