I have an opportunity to design a stainless steel weld. I am not sure if it will be stainless-to-stainless or stainless-to-A36 at this point. To complicate things some, it is SS400 stainless material too (I'm not sure which class of SS400 it is right now either).
I am familiar with the regular steel weld design, but haven't messed with stainless yet.
Is the design the same as regular steel, except the design strength for the weld material (stainless) changes? If it is only the design strength that changes, where can I find those values?
Thanks for any help you can provide.
