Weld Symbol Updated, adding backing bar symbol, becoming AWS D1.1 compliant.

Weld Symbol Updated, adding backing bar symbol, becoming AWS D1.1 compliant.

Please update the weld symbol to have a backing bar symbol that is not removable. Using the plug weld symbol makes the symbol non-compliant. We need to be able to remove the "R" from the backing bar symbol.

 

Also, please add the ability to stack fractions in a weld symbol.

 

And, while you're there, please update the symbol styles to be AWS D1.1 compliant. We're missing weld symbols that match the joint designations for complete-joint-penetration (CJP) welds.

 

Also, it would be nice if we had more control over the weld tail and the symbol's horizontal line (make it shorter for some weld symbols).

 

Oh and one more thing, we need to be able to stagger more welds than just the fillet welds. Our shop is constantly welding long HSS members to other steel shapes and the fact that we can't show a staggered weld between the corner of the HSS and a flat surface (i.e. Flare Bevel Welds).

We've been trying to get it done since 12-05-2016!  

See "Missing weld symbol" in the community

We need weld symbols for AWS D1.1 (and their other standards), and ASME.
