Create weld between 2 parallel plates.

[WOHughes]

Hi!

This is a question on creating welds manually. As discussed previously in this thread https://github.com/idea-statica/ideastatica-public/discussions/686#discussioncomment-11010960 there was previously a problem with defining welds that appears to have now been solved. However, when I try to define welds around a stiffener plate, the API is unable to assign the weld to the correct plate local edge index.

For example, if i define the following RHS and plate in gh

And define fillet welds along the two green lines:

Then the welds operating is applied in Statica, but always to local edge index 0, thus generating no weld. It would be great if using the deconstruct plate component we could extract edge indices, and in the create weld component we could select an edge index directly.

Any advice? I have attached the relevant files below:

Many thanks

Hello, it needs more development. It is not possible in the GH at the moment.
