You can change existing welds to polygon welds if the existing welds have been created by using the Create weld between parts command or by a component. The new polygon welds will traverse the same points as the original welds did.
When converting double-sided weld segments to a polygon weld, Tekla Structures may not be able to create the polygon weld. If the welds to be converted consist of more than one polygon, or if there is a different number of weld segments on the sides of the welded part, Tekla Structures does not create the double-sided polygon weld but separate single-sided polygon welds.
- Select the weld you want to change.
To select multiple welds, hold down the Ctrl or Shift key.
- On the Steel tab, click .
