The SOLIDWORKS Weldments course will teach you how to create welded structures with standard structural members and weld beads.
Weldments is a functionality command available in Solidworks. It enables the designer to design a weldment structure component as a single multibody part. Weldments are typically structural section cut in size and held together by using a welding process. Weldments are a common process for structural members and parts. To create weldments initially we will be creating a basic sketch as a framework. Based on the basic sketch we will be creating the profiles for structures
