WELD:

 Weld Requirements:

At shear only case: 
Weld Length for shear, Lv = 15.00 in.
Shear Load per inch per weld, fv = R/Lv/2 = 36.67 / 15.00 / 2 = 1.22 kips/in/ weld 
theta = 0 deg.
cPhi  = 1.0 + 0.5 * sin(0)^1.5 = 1.00
Weld Coefficient = 0.60 * 70.00 * 1.00 * 1.00 * (2^0.5/2)*(1/16) = 1.86
Required weld size, Dv = fv/ (phi * coeff) = 1.22 / (0.75 * 1.86) = 0.88/16

Minimum fillet weld size : 
   At shear only load case = 0.05 in.
   per Table J2.4     = 0.19 in.
   5/8tp              = 0.23 in.
   user preference    = 0.25 in.

Dmax1 (using AISC 14th Ed. eqn 9-3)
 = tshpl * Fushpl / ( Fexx * C1 * 0.09)
 = 0.38 * 65.00 / ( 70.00 * 1.00 * 0.09 ) 
 = 3.94 
Dmax2 (using AISC 14th Ed. eqn 9-3)
 = twbm * Fusupport / ( Fexx * C1 * 0.09 )
 = 0.32 * 65.00 / ( 70.00 * 1.00 * 0.09 ) 
 = 3.31 
Dmax3 = project max fillet weld = 12.00
Dmax=min(Dmax1, Dmax2, Dmax3) = min(3.94, 3.31, 12.00)
 = 3.31 

Use weld size
D1 = 4.00
D2 = 4.00

Weld Strength :

Vertical weld capacity during shear only load, phi * Rnv1 = 0.75 * 1.86 * 15.00 * (3.31 + 3.31) = 138.21 kips

138.21 kips >= Reaction V = 36.67 kips (OK)
