A cap plate for a beam with a welded moment connection can be created by connection design when that beam frames to the top of a column flange. Although the moment cap plate shop welds to the column, "  Moment Cap Plate " locks are maintained on the Beam Edit window since the cap plate is generated as a component of the welded moment connection, which is also specified on the beam.
