I've got my 4th mow in already here in the deep south of USA.
When I wrenched on Big Trucks & Excavators. We would often fish plate a truck frame if we lengthened it or found a crack.
On Big Rigs never supposed to Weld vertically down the frame rail. That would be crossing the grain of the steel, & causing possible brittle areas next to the welds.
But I see it done often enough.
