This paper provides data on stress concentration factors (SCFs) from experimental measurements on cruciform tubular joints of a chord and brace intersection under axial loading. High-fidelity finite element models were generated and validated against these measurements. Further, the statistical variation and the uncertainty in both experiments and finite element analysis (FEA) are studied, including the effect of finite element modelling of the weld profile, mesh size, element type and the method for deriving the SCF. A method is proposed for modelling such uncertainties in order to determine a reasonable SCF. Traditionally, SCF are determined by parametric formulae found in codes and standards and the paper also provides these for comparis...
