To Create a Spot Weld
Spot welds use datum points on a surface as references for their location. You can select multiple datum points, and create one weld in multiple locations, or you can create a single spot weld and use pitch functionality to create additional welds based on the first weld.
1. Click Applications > Welding. The Welding tab opens.
2. Under Type, click Spot Weld. The Spot Weld tab opens.
3. Under Dimensioning Scheme, click one of the following options:
Diameter—Creates weld dimensions based on diameter. Type a value for diameter.
Strength—For spot welds, creates weld dimensions based on spot strength. Type a value for strength.
Area—Creates weld dimensions based on cross-sectional area. Type a value for area.
4. For spot welds, select the surface on which the weld is located, and then under Side Significance, click a command:
—Arrow side.
—Other side.
5. Click the Location tab, click the Location collector, and then perform one of the following actions:
To create multiple welds in one operation, select multiple datum points in the Model Tree or graphics window.
To use pitch welding to create additional welds based on the first weld, select a single datum point in the Model Tree or graphics window. Then perform the following actions:
1. Select the Pitch welding check box.
2. Click the Direction Reference collector, and then select a reference in the Model Tree or graphics window to set the pitch direction. If needed, click Flip to flip the pitch direction 180 degrees.
3. In the Number of welds box, type the number of welds to create.
4. In the Spacing box, type the distance between weld centers.

You can also use the Pattern tool to create additional welds based on one spot weld.
6. Click the Options tab, and define the weld options.
7. Click the Symbol tab, and define the properties of the weld symbol displayed in the graphics window.
8. To add a user-defined parameter, click the Properties tab, and then click Define. Enter a parameter in the Parameters dialog box that opens.
9. Click OK.
