Top and bottom flanges are clipped parallel to face of abutment backwall,
faces of Inverted-T bents, or where beam conflicts exist. Top flange is
clipped parallel to centerline of joint at conventional bents.

Bottom flange at conventional bents is not clipped unless conflict exists
with beams in adjacent span.
