Using Eq. 10-8 and Eq. 10-7 (14th Ed.):
Required, Mta or Mtu = Ra * (tw + tp) /2 = 12.00 * ((0.19 + 0.38) / 2) = 3.38 kips-in
Lateral Shear Strength of Shear Plate, Mtn (no slab) = [1/omega*(0.6*Fyp)-(Ra/(L*tp))] *L*tp^2/2 =  ((0.67 * 0.6 * 36.00) - (12.00 / (8.50 * 0.38))) * 0.5 * 8.50 * 0.38^2 = 6.36 kips-in
Stabilizer Plate Not Required for torsional strength

WELD:

 Weld Requirements:

At shear only case: 
Weld Length for shear, Lv = 8.500 in.
Shear Load per inch per weld, fv = R/Lv/2 = 12.000 / 8.500 / 2 = 0.706 kips/in/ weld 
theta = 0 deg.
cPhi  = 1.0 + 0.5 * sin(0)^1.5 = 1.000
Weld Coefficient = 0.6 * 70.000 * 1.000 * 1.000 * (2^0.5/2)*(1/16) = 1.856
Required weld size, Dv = fv/ (1/omega * coeff) = 0.706 / (0.500 * 1.856) = 0.761/16

Minimum fillet weld size : 
   At shear only load case = 0.05 in.
   per Table J2.4     = 0.19 in.
   5/8(tp)            = 0.23 in.
   user preference    = 0.25 in.

Dmax1 (using eqn 9-3)
 = tshpl * Fushpl / ( Fexx * C1 * 0.088)
 = 0.375 * 58.000 / ( 70.000 * 1.000 * 0.088 ) 
 = 3.515 
Dmax2 (using eqn 9-3)
 = twsupport * Fusupport / ( Fexx * C1 * 0.088 )
 = 0.340 * 65.000 / ( 70.000 * 1.000 * 0.088 ) 
 = 3.572 
Dmax3 = project max fillet weld = 12.000
Dmax=min(Dmax1, Dmax2, Dmax3) = min(3.515, 3.572, 12.000)
 = 3.515 

Use weld size
D1 = 4.00
D2 = 4.00

Weld Strength :
Vertical weld capacity during shear only load, 1/omega * Rnv1 = 0.50 * 1.86 * 8.50 * (3.52 + 3.52) = 55.46 kips
