Dmax3 = project max fillet weld = 12.000
Dmax=min(Dmax1, Dmax2, Dmax3) = min(3.515, 3.309, 12.000)
 = 3.309 

Dihedral Angle, DA       = 85.20 deg.
Gap on Obtuse Angle Side = 0.03 in.
Use weld size
Acute Side  D1 = 4.00
Obtuse Side D2 = 5.00

Weld Strength :
Vertical weld capacity during shear only load, 1/omega * Rnv1 = 0.50 * 1.86 * 11.50 * (3.31 + 3.31) = 70.64 kips
Check Effective Throat:
Acute Side Effect throat  = (D1/sin(DA)) * cos(DA/2) = (0.25/ sin( 85.20)) * cos( 42.60) = 0.18 in.
Obtuse Side Effect throat = ((D2/sin(DA)-tshpl/tan(DA))*sin((180-(180-DA))/2))= ((0.31 / sin(85.20) -0.38 / tan(85.20)) * sin((180 - (180 - 85.20)) / 2)) = 0.15 in.
Total Effective Throat    = 0.18 + 0.15 = 0.38 in.
Total Effective Throat of Square Case = D1 * 2^0.5 = 0.25 * 2^0.5 = 0.35 in.
0.35 in. <= 0.38 in. (OK)
