Welding A449 studs
(OP)
I have a project where the design calls for A449 threaded studs to be welded to A36 steel tubing. Viable?

RE: Welding A449 studs
Is it a good idea? No.
I think you are implying that the tube cross section will not allow tapping into the od.
You would have to derate the studs but by how
much is probably indeterminate and may be based
on the cross section of the tubing material
rather than the bolt. I am certain that there
would be no spec for this.
