[MW:22754] Re: Mystery Welding Symbol - Please Assist

Hi Curt, a simple solution would be to ask the party that made that drawing. As far as I know, the tail of a welding symbol is reserved for welding notes. It can either be left open or boxed. No specific weld symbol is expected to be attached there.

 

Best regards,

Tim

I have a question about a welding symbol that has been driving me crazy. 

I am reviewing a shop drawing for a sub-contracted steel fabricator, and I can't for the life of me find any information on the tail symbol in their drawing, which I have highlighted in the attachment. It is welding an angle to a square HSS. The symbol is not covered in the CISC Handbook of Steel Construction, and I have looked all over the internet, to no avail.

Can anyone provide information on its meaning?? Additionally, I am very curious as to its origin, or where it is standardized.
