Design of welded aluminum structures will be addressed by either an AWS Aluminum Structural welding code or other code of construction.
 
I'm looking for more of a textbook that will demonstrate how to perform the analysis
 

Aluminum Structures by Randolph Kissell.

This's a pretty good read; some of the tables are printed too dark though, so you may want to hunt down the source reference material or "borrow" better Kissell scans available on the web.

(what's frustrating is that the the aluminum design manual made reference to in the book may be hard to obtain/prohibitively expensive out of pocket otherwise).
