Subject: [CR]What about those rear brake bridges

Not having any experience brazing anything on a bike... I always feel cheated when a frame has no lugs connecting the rear brake bridge or even the chainstay stiffener to the rest of the frame. How do lugged frames have these two pieces attached? I understand that these pieces are very thick and sturdy but the bike tubing they attach to is standard issue thin gauge. Are they fillet brazed or is another method employed?
