Weld Surface Properties
The pedal arm contains weld surface data from Moldflow. In order to understand the effect the weld surfaces have on the structural life of the pedal arm, we must first calculate the strength reduction factor for each point that lies on the weld surface.
While still on the Material tab, click
(Material > Weld Surfaces > Weld Surface Properties).Make sure the User-specified strength reduction factor option is selected.
Set the strength reduction factor value to 0.90.
Click OK.
