For a canopy, the Design prints show a "boundary weld" on toe of an angle, inside a frame, to metal decking.
I'm guessing it's like "boundary" nailing for wood diaphragms. That would be the welding around the exterior of the canopy. The interior nails/welds would be called "field" nails/welds. Do they specify field welds? It's got to do with the shear forces in the canopy acting as a horizontal diaphragm.
