Welds on sheetmetal

Mar 02, 2006 2 Replies

Hi all,



I am modeling a part that is formed out of a single piece of sheet metal. I would like to have the corners fully welded after the bend operations for rigidity purposes. Is there any way to add fillet welds to sheet metal parts a-la the same ability in weldments? Also keeping in mind there is a small gap in the corner where the bends don't really touch.



Thanks! Dave


I never show the weld unless absolutely necessary for some unknown reason. The weld will be called out on the drawing.

Thanks Wayne,

This is exactly how I ended up doing it. I added an End Treatment annotation and a weld symbol callout.
