Mr. Joy Pal,
a. General considerations is to have fillet size with respect to plate material thickness.
b. If it is a load bearing structure, the fillet size could be 3/4 (0.75) of the base metal thickness.
c. If it is a non-load bearing structure, the fillet size could be 3/8 (0.375 -or- 0.38) of the base metal
thickness.
d. Hence, your 6X14 will represent the asymmetrical thickness of base/parent metal.
e. It could have been more better if the sketch has shown sections of a/a and b/b giving about actual
thickness of the material used.

Subject: [MW:14717] Asymmetric fillet weld
Hi,
I would like to know what weld size we should consider for Asymmetric fillet weld (a fillet weld where the legs are of unequal length). Please look at the attached file and let me know the weld size for ( 6 X 14 ) Fillet during welding at shop.
( 6 X 14 ) , is for example only , in reality it could be any uneven size like (... X ... ). Let me know if there is any standard procedure / thumb rule to consider the fillet weld size for this type of asymmetric callout.
Don't consider it may come as a welding process defect. It is from actual fabrication job and for illustrative purpose only.
Thanks in advance,
Joy
