We present a parametric analysis of gap variation between the lap brace and through brace of YT welded joints for rolled-steel circular hollow sections on plane steel structures. Our aim is to investigate the collapse behavior of YT-joints under lap brace axial compression. In particular. we focus on e/d0 ratios above 0. https://www.roneverhart.com/Bob-The-Boxcutter-R1P-Aluminum-Grey/
