Tapered Sole Plates [LRFD 14.8.2]

Check this option of the requirements for tapered sole plates are to be evaluated. If the inclination of the underside of the girder exceeds the specified threshold a warning will be added to the the specification check.

Enter the inclination of the underside of the girder to the horizontal threshold, in radians.
