End Treatments
You can manually insert representations of weld beads as end treatments or caterpillar symbols in drawing documents. Use end treatment symbols to represent the end view (section) of a weld bead on a drawing.
To automatically insert end treatment symbols in drawing documents, click Model Items
on the Annotation toolbar or Insert, Model Items and under Annotations, select End Treatment
.
Adding end treatment symbols does not add a weld symbol or weld bead geometry.

To insert an end treatment to the weldment:
-
In a drawing document, click End Treatment
(Annotation toolbar) or Insert, Annotations, End Treatment.
-
Set options in the End Treatment PropertyManager.
-
If the symbol can go on either side of the selected edges, click the side of the edges where you want to place the symbol.
