Ran across this welding job.  Thought you might want to see it.  I'm not a structural engineer nor a pro welder, but it looks rather dodgy.

Seems like the tubular steel would be seriously weakened by the "technique" that was used.  Additionally it would leave the inside of the tubing exposed to the elements.  And around pools (chlorine) that's especially worrisome.

WARNING: Welding can be dangerous.  It can cause fires, damage, injury or death.   If you don't know, get training or don't do it.
