The symbol in the png was not very clear, but I would speculate that this non-standard symbol in the tail is to call for an end return (also termed boxing) is to be provided. See Figure E.14.E in W59-13.

Subject: [MW:22746] Mystery Welding Symbol - Please Assist
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.
