Puddle (Arc Spot) Welds

(OP)
Is there an interaction equation for shear and tension on these welds? I don't see anything in the AWS D1.3

I was thinking maybe a single spot weld may not be permitted to resist combined loading, and the answer is to have more welds.

The application is diaphragm and uplift loads on metal roof deck.

Excellent, Ron.

I am surprised they even bothered with the nonlinear regression based on the scatter.
