Stainless Steel Weld Strength

Stainless Steel Weld Strength

Stainless Steel Weld Strength

(OP)
I am designing fillet welds for a moment connection of two HSS tubes made with 316 stainless. I want to use AISC Table 8-4 for the weld group but I am not familiar with weld strengths in stainless
and not sure what electrode to choose from Table 8-3 to arrive at the C1 coefficient. Can anyone who is up on stainless welding point me in the right direction?
Thanks for your help/advice.

RE: Stainless Steel Weld Strength

AISC's Design Guide 27 would be a good place to start: Link

I like to debate structural engineering theory -- a lot. If I challenge you on something, know that I'm doing so because I respect your opinion enough to either change it or adopt it.

$140/yr to join AISC and you can get all 29 Design Guides for free. Plus all of the other free info that is on there...best membership deal out there that I am aware of!

RE: Stainless Steel Weld Strength

ASCE gives you several hours of free PDHs. It's not a bad deal if you like the free classes that are on the list for any given year.

ASCE has free PDH's for members? Any link to this 'deal'?

RE: Stainless Steel Weld Strength

Thanks, TLHS. Much appreciated.
