A welded arrangement has a supporting element (1) and a load element (3) welded thereto. In order to increase the resistance of the welded area (5), at least one wall (1a) of the supporting element (1) is thicker than the other walls (1b, 1c), or one reinforcement element is connected to the surface of the bearing wall to which the load element is welded. Such an arrangement serves as a mounting device for a (wheel) suspension system of a vehicle. <IMAGE>
