Abstract
The 2010 AISC Specification for Structural Steel Buildings has expanded the scope in Chapter K ("Design of HSS and Box Member Connections"�) with a new Section K4, "Welds to Branches."� This paper describes the background to this development and examines the structural reliability of the weld effective length provisions contained therein. The latter is achieved by using a database of 31 welded square/rectangular hollow structural section (HSS) K-, T- and cross- (or X-) connections in which all test specimen failures were reached by fracture of the welded joints. The potential inclusion (or exclusion) of the sin θ effect, whereby fillet weld capacity is increased for loading not parallel to the axis of the weld, has also been investigated. In conclusion, some design examples are given to illustrate the weld design method, performed to the 2010 AISC Specification in both LRFD and ASD.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
