Question:
Is it possible to design intermittent welds in the CRANEWAY add-on module?
Answer:
Yes, it is. The Intermittent weld seam option is suitable if the weld seam between the crane rail and the flange is not continuous. A parallel opposing arrangement is assumed. After you select the check box, you can specify the length of the weld seam and the interruption. These specifications are considered in the design.
