In building offshore platforms, tubular members are used because of their good structural and mechanical properties. Tubular members are connected to one another by special welded joints, which represent structural discontinuities causing significant stress concentrations in the vicinity of the weld. For some joints, the stress concentration can produce a maximum stress at the intersection as high as thirty times the nominal stress acting in the members. Under repead loading, fatigue failures always initiate at the areas, which referred to as "hot-spot" where there are high-level stress concentrations, which called "hot spot stress (HSS)". For this reason, accurate computation of stress concentration is very important in tubular joints desi...
