Welding across of compression flange of beam?

Is there any problem welding across top of a compression flange of a beam?
Any where in AISC code stated? I appreciate a reference
Thank you

I assume before the installation of the roof thing they are not allowed to lift anything till the construction is completed
Any concerns that I have to pay attention
Thanks

The compression flange is a little different but I'd still take care to have the welder do it in stages across the flange so as not to totally have a plastic/melted flange at one time.
I'd also suggest doing what WARose suggests for more heavily loaded beams - but if it is only self weight then perhaps this isn't as big a problem.
