A method of weld design for a work piece is provided. The work piece may be a unitary piece or a multi-component piece. The method includes determining a manufacturing feasible region of the work piece satisfying one or more predetermined manufacturing requirements including accessibility of welding components. The method includes determining a performance feasibility function satisfying one or more predetermined performance factors as applied in a performance simulation of the work piece. The workpiece may have a varying number of welds. An optimized weld design may be determined by minimizing an objective function, defined as a summation of the number of welds and the performance feasibility function, within the manufacturing feasible region. The optimized weld design is configured to have a minimum number of welds, and concurrently satisfy the predetermined manufacturing requirements and the performance factors.
