Topic: Gusset Welding
Stupid question: when installing simple plate gussets, do you weld one side or both sides? I ask because some (read: dash bars) would be damn-near impossible to weld on both sides.
Thanks and forgive my stupidity...

An additional question: Continuous weld for gussets or two stitches?
I ask because another sanctioning body wants two separate welds on gussets due to concerns over stress cracking.
Gussets are not required so you can weld them as you think best.
I asked The Evil One (John Pagel) this very question last weekend.
He replied that it is OK to only weld gussets on just one side.
Personally, I would weld both sides whenever possible.
