There is no "inside". The weld is only on one side of the Z. The other side  
is just the Z-rod touching the leg.

I am glad to get this information. The Height tower I  have in my yard  just  
now is old. I noticed that some of the  weld or the Z have opened  and was 
going  
to fix that before  I put the tower up. Now I may get all  the welds 
inspected 

before  I put it up. I looked at the welds before  and wondered if they were  
OK,  but as I am not an expert I thought they  were OK. The  welds that brook 
were 
under high tention after the Z itself  bent  at these places.

I  have found that wire brushing reveals some of the hairline cracks that   
oxidation has covered up.  Also, check on the inside of the  weld  joint.  I 
have 
discovered some hairlines there, that were  not showing on  the outside of 
the 
joint.
