Good evening all,

Thank You

By inspection I think those tight bends will cause cracking depending on the material and the orientation .
Transverse direction is more vulnerable to cracking in rolled plate.

The loading in service will determine if fatigue failure is a consideration, and that can have profound effects on the weld design and weld process required.

AWS A2.4 shows most of the possible weld configurations and the symbols that define them.

Some more technical details would help others provide useful answers.
I wonder if you have the details you need.
