thread726-254963: built up column weld
I am trying to use a cruciform column for a 12 story SMF structure. all of the flanges and webs of the section are built of plates and no I-beams are used. I have uploaded a picture of the section.
my problem is: How to calculate the fillet weld's dimension for welding different parts of the section together ???
I would appreciate any help.

Michael.
Timing has a lot to do with the outcome of a rain dance.

That is right! the section is under flexural stress, so i used the shear flow formula; with different Q for flange weld and web weld.
tanx again.
