A localized strength reduction in the HAZ due to transverse welds can be considered in the design according to EN 1999-1-1. Für andere Bemessungsnormen wird die Entfestigung durch Quernähte nicht berücksichtigt.
You can arrange and create transverse welds by assigning a member transverse weld.
Weld Location and Type
There are fillet and butt welds available as weld types for selection. You can define the transverse welds for different locations along a member or a member set. For this, a specific location is defined by using an absolute or relative entry. You can also use the
können Sie zwischen der relativen und absoluten Eingabe der Längen wechseln. A multiple definition for the faster entry of recurring transverse welds in a certain distance is also possible.

Parameter
In this section, the weld parameters for the selected location are defined. If you select the multiple definition, enter a number and an offset of the transverse welds. Again, the distance can be entered absolutely or relatively.
The weld requires the definition of a weld thickness and a welding method. The MIG and TIG methods are available for selection. Des Weiteren ist die Anzahl der Wege zur Wärmeableitung und die Temperatur anzugeben.
Graphical Display
In the Navigator - Display, you can activate the graphical display of the transverse welds. For members and member sets to which a transverse weld is assigned, a cross-section border is displayed at the locations of the transverse weld.
