Looks like the beams framing into the webs of the column are offset from the column center line by 3.75". Column looks to be 10H48# - which I take to be a 10" H section at 48plf. So I'm guessing your highlighted lines are the plates they call out and are meant to be shear tabs for the beams framing in.

Do you have access to the building to visually inspect the connection?

Nomenclature used and sizes of the 3 sections shown are not consistent with 1950's AISC listings.
