RE: Weld clearance on plate
If you refer to distances between welds along a flange-web junction I preferably would make them continuous, and if not, the closer the better. 30 cm would be my maximum between centers ... these webs are subject to compression where the lateral restraint is provided by the flanges through the web. Also subject to tension in fatigue, hence always, a fatigue analysis for the detail is required.
