correct and best welding on a gusset plate
(OP)
Hi guys
in our office we have a debate about the best welding of the angle section on a gusset plate.
See attached image. I have my own theory and my colleagues also they own one. Now I wanted to extend the debate on this forum to get maybe some new ideas.
Where and how would you weld the angle section on the gusset plate?

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.

Realistically, in the shop/place of fabrication no one is going to want to measure the specified weld amount for each joist, if they just know, weld anywhere weld will fit, things go faster and less chance of mixing up different structural members and how much weld they require from drawings.
