This is just an FYI for everyone. If you are modifying your WeldTemplate.dwg, after going through the steps specified in https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/advance-steel/troubleshooting/caas/sfdcarticles/sfdcarticles/..., you CANNOT apply the modified template to your previously created drawings. The modified template will only apply to newly created drawings (not updated existing drawings). 

 

If Autodesk could make it so Advance Steel could update the modified template within a previously created drawing, that would be helpful.

I had this problem before. Hopefully this will help.

 

I have been able to change the weld template. It does not modify for existing drawings however any new drawings it shows the changes I have made. One thing to make sure of is that you don't change the name of the template. It helps to keep a copy of the original template in another folder but the template that you change to be how you want it, it has to be called "WeldTemplate.dwg" or else the program will not recognize it.

Hello VEERMANI,

 

what Advance Steel version are you talking about (year and country)? The weld symbol was improved for 2016 version and it should be way easier now to modify the template to your needs.

 

Have you been in contact with Autodesk support for that issue?

 

best regards

Udo

Hello,

 

Currently I do not leave a single weld symbol created by Advance, I delete all symbols and replace with symbols done per AWS / MASSDOT requirements.

 

I will attach a screen shot of a fillet weld symbol created by Advance-it is a joke.

 

This is a link, ref. page 4-5 for weld symbols requirements:

 

https://www.massdot.state.ma.us/Portals/8/docs/bridgeManual/2005/CHAPTER%204%202005.pdf

 

I hope this won't be hard to do for next release

 

Regards,

Hello sir,

I just  want to know Are your team aware about weld template modification?Because it is too simple to create/modify any weld symbol.so can also make these changes at your own end.we have modified our weld template according US detailing standard and also create so many new weld symbols to meet the detailing standard because advance steel missed so many things like staggered fillet weld ,root opening and degree of preparation for bevel weld weld length in inches and also remove bar,back gauge for bevel weld and other.so if you have any problem in this case.

   Let me inform.

   I want to hearing back from you.

 

 

thank you

Hello,

 

I am aware of the possibility to modify the templates,

 

On the other end, if a software is aiming at the structural steel detailing market, it should be a structural steel detailing software taking in

 

consideration basic rules and requirements.

 

Similar to other things like workable gauges to be correct, radii of HSS profiles to be correct, standards / slotted and oversized holes to be per AISC by default in all connections macros; slotted holes labels to follow slot orientation, holes in hidden objects to be shown VH symbol only, without hatch, etc basic rules that Advance is ignoring and are not developed. 

 

Current weld symbols cannot be taken seriously.

 

Have a great day.
