STABILIZER PLATE:

Available Strength to Resist Lateral Displacement:
Using AISC 14th Ed. Equation 10-6
phiRn = 1500.00  * 3.14159 * L * tp^3 / a^2 = 0.90 * 1500.00 * 3.14159 * 8.50 * 0.38^3 / 9.50^2 = 21.06 kips
Stabilizer Plate Not Required for lateral displacement

Torsional Strength:
Using AISC 14th Ed. Equation 10-8 and 10-7
Required, Mta or Mtu = Ru * (tw + tp) /2 = 20.00 * ((0.19 + 0.38) / 2) = 5.62 kips-in
Lateral Shear Strength of Shear Plate, Mtn (no slab) = [phiv*(0.6*Fyp)-(Ru/(L*tp))] *L*tp^2/2 =  ((1.00 * 0.6 * 50.00) - (20.00 / (8.50 * 0.38))) * 0.5 * 8.50 * 0.38^2 = 14.18 kips-in
Stabilizer Plate Not Required for torsional strength

WELD:

 Weld Requirements:

At shear only case: 
Weld Length for shear, Lv = 7.50 in.
Shear Load per inch per weld, fv = R/Lv/2 = 20.00 / 7.50 / 2 = 1.33 kips/in/ weld 
theta = 0 deg.
cPhi  = 1.0 + 0.5 * sin(0)^1.5 = 1.00
Weld Coefficient = 0.60 * 70.00 * 1.00 * 1.00 * (2^0.5/2)*(1/16) = 1.86
Required weld size, Dv = fv/ (phi * coeff) = 1.33 / (0.75 * 1.86) = 0.96/16

Minimum fillet weld size : 
   At shear only load case = 0.06 in.
   per Table J2.4     = 0.19 in.
   5/8tp              = 0.23 in.
   user preference    = 0.25 in.

Dmax1 (using eqn 9-3)
 = tshpl * Fushpl / ( Fexx * C1 * 0.09)
 = 0.38 * 65.00 / ( 70.00 * 1.00 * 0.09 ) 
 = 3.94 
Dmax2 (using eqn 9-3)
 = twsupport * Fusupport / ( Fexx * C1 * 0.09 )
 = 0.68 * 65.00 / ( 70.00 * 1.00 * 0.09 ) 
 = 7.14 
Dmax3 = project max fillet weld = 12.00
Dmax=min(Dmax1, Dmax2, Dmax3) = min(3.94, 7.14, 12.00)
 = 3.94 

Use weld size
D1 = 4.00
D2 = 4.00

Weld Strength :

Vertical weld capacity during shear only load, phi * Rnv1 = 0.75 * 1.86 * 7.50 * (3.94 + 3.94) = 82.27 kips

82.27 kips >= Reaction V = 20.00 kips (OK)
