Program Description:
"WELDGRP" is a spreadsheet program written in MS-Excel for the purpose of analysis of weld groups using either the ultimate strength method (also known as "instantaneous center of rotation" method) or the "elastic" (vector) method ("Alternate Method 1" in AISC Manual). A separate worksheet contains data tables for welds. This program is a workbook consisting of eleven (11) worksheets, described as follows:

Description
This documentation sheet Weld group instantaneous center analysis for vertical parallel welds Weld group instantaneous center analysis for horizontal parallel welds Weld group instantaneous center analysis for vertical rectangular welds Weld group instantaneous center analysis for horizontal rectangular welds Weld group instantaneous center analysis for C-shaped welds (case 1) Weld group instantaneous center analysis for C-shaped welds (case 2) Weld group instantaneous center analysis for L-shaped welds (case1) Weld group instantaneous center analysis for L-shaped welds (case 2) Weld group elastic analysis for up to 24 total weld lines and 4 load points Fillet Weld Data Tables
sequence with no "breaks" in the numerical order of input data. 9. The "Weld Group (elastic)" worksheet calculates the required weld size in terms of both fillet leg and effective throat dimensions, based on the assumption of using E70XX welding electrodes. The user should check AISC specification for limitations on minimum and maximum weld sizes. 10. This program contains numerous comment boxes which contain a wide variety of information including explanations of input or output items, equations used, data tables, etc. (Note: presence of a comment box is denoted by a red triangle in the upper right-hand corner of a cell. Merely move the mouse pointer to the desired cell to view the contents of that particular "comment box".) 11. Weld Data worksheet shows data tables for minimum size of fillet welds, allowable force on fillet welds, and intermittent fillet weld lengths and spacings.
Circular Weld Example (using elastic method): A circular weld of diameter, 'D', with its center located at 0.50*D from both the origin X and Y axes, may be modeled as 24-sided shape inscribed within the circle. The coordinates of the 24 connected segments can be described as follows: Weld Coordinates: Start Weld #1 Weld #2 Weld #3 Weld #4 Weld #5 Weld #6 Weld #7 Weld #8 Weld #9 Weld #10 Weld #11 Weld #12 Weld #13 Weld #14 Weld #15 Weld #16 Weld #17 Weld #18 Weld #19 Weld #20 Weld #21 Weld #22 Weld #23 Weld #24 X1 0 0.0170*D 0.0670*D 0.1464*D 0.2500*D 0.3706*D 0.50*D 0.6294*D 0.7500*D 0.8536*D 0.9330*D 0.9830*D 1.0*D 0.9830*D 0.9330*D 0.8536*D 0.7500*D 0.6294*D 0.50*D 0.3706*D 0.2500*D 0.1464*D 0.0670*D 0.0170*D Y1 0.50*D 0.3706*D 0.2500*D 0.1464*D 0.0670*D 0.0170*D 0 0.0170*D 0.0670*D 0.1464*D 0.2500*D 0.3706*D 0.50*D 0.6294*D 0.7500*D 0.8536*D 0.9330*D 0.9830*D 1.0*D 0.9830*D 0.9330*D 0.8536*D 0.7500*D 0.6294*D X2 0.0170*D 0.0670*D 0.1464*D 0.2500*D 0.3706*D 0.50*D 0.6294*D 0.7500*D 0.8536*D 0.9330*D 0.9830*D 1.0*D 0.9830*D 0.9330*D 0.8536*D 0.7500*D 0.6294*D 0.50*D 0.3706*D 0.2500*D 0.1464*D 0.0670*D 0.0170*D 0 End Y2 0.3706*D 0.2500*D 0.1464*D 0.0670*D 0.0170*D 0 0.0170*D 0.0670*D 0.1464*D 0.2500*D 0.3706*D 0.50*D 0.6294*D 0.7500*D 0.8536*D 0.9330*D 0.9830*D 1.0*D 0.9830*D 0.9330*D 0.8536*D 0.7500*D 0.6294*D 0.50*D
