A boom and boom foot section are disclosed where the boom includes a center section and a box section extending between the foot and center sections. The box section includes first and second side walls. The foot section includes a machine connection for connecting the boom to a machine, and first and second protruding flanges. The first flange couples to the first side wall, and the second flange couples to the second side wall. The foot section can include a bulkhead. The machine connection, bulkhead, and flanges can be formed by a single piece of material. The flanges can be coupled to the side walls by weld joints that do not have weld roots. The flanges can extend beyond the bulkhead to allow internal welds in the weld joint. The flanges and side walls can have double-beveled edges for the weld joints formed by fused groove welds.
