Creating Welds

  Weld Design lets you model welds in assemblies. The different types of welds you can create are simple (fillet) or butted (square butt, V-butt, bevel butt and so on) and are supported in ANSI standard.
  To create a weld, you need to determine the following via a Creation dialog box specific to each weld type:
 

Its parameters such as height, angle, surface shape, annotation display and so on. They are all available in the Parameters tab of the creation dialog box.

 

The reference geometry, that is the components to be welded, see Geometry to be used for Creating Welds.

 

Its type (dashed or not): use the Type tab.

 

Its associated material: use the  Material tab.

 

Its location in the specification tree: use the Connection tab (Joint and Joint Body options).

  Weld features are associative with the reference geometry. This means that if geometrical elements change, weld features reflect the change.
