The intermediate plate is situated above the first plate laterally outside the flange. The second plate is situated above the intermediate plate and has a first bead disposed inside the intermediate plate and under the flange, and a second bead disposed outside the first bead and adjacent the flange. The second bead projects upwardly beyond the flange and has an inner section immediately outside the flange and an outer section outside the inner section. The inner section is inclined greater than the outer section.
