Hi Seth,
Thanks for your reply. The information you provided is for the Fin plate connection. We're looking for an end plate connection having full depth. Refer below image for same connection template available in Eurocode.
This is a shear end plate I assume, not a moment end plate. If you want a full depth plate that's welded to the flanges I would argue that is a moment conenction, and you can certainly use our MEP connections for that. But, if you are trying to use the AISC EP Shear Connection, the best you can do is manually extend it based on the edge distances (Lev).
