Tolerance for sagging at Beam to Beam Weld joint
(OP)
Dear Experts,
During fabrication of Tank Roof structure, we are facing some distortion / sagging at Beam to Beam butt welded joints (A992 W shapes).
Can you guide me how much is the tolerance for it and which reference documents to be referred (AISC or other)?

IF there's any overgrinding visible then the capacity of the member/section is reduced and it needs to be repaired.
