Automatic Weld Symbols

Note: You cannot create new weld bead components, but you can edit weld bead components created prior to SolidWorks 2011.

When you create a weld bead, a weld symbol is automatically attached to the weld bead component in the assembly.

To add more detailed specifications to the default weld symbol:

  1. In the assembly document or in a drawing document, right-click the symbol and select Properties, or double-click the symbol.

  2. Specify the dimensions, symbols, and other options that you want to include, and click OK.
