[MW:20833] RE: 20830] Regarding fillet weld

Dear Sir,

 

Option A has a throat thickness of 8,0 mm

Option B only has a throat thickness of 4,9 mm (excess weld metal doesn’t do anything regarding strength calculation)

Option C has a throat thickness of 7,0 mm

Option D: throat thickness depends on the degree of concavity but in general this will be less than 3 mm so in that case it will be equal to or larger than 8 mm

 

In general I would say option A or D, this depends on how much concavity option D will have. In case concavity will be less than 3 mm option D will be the strongest. Beside that option D will also be the preferred weld detail in case your construction will be under dynamic load, for avoiding stress risers in order to prevent any fatigue issues.

 

Met vriendelijke groeten / Best Regards,

Dear Experts,

Please advise me which of the fillet weld joint is strongest      (assuming they are all made using the same material and welded using the same WPS) ?

A             8 mm throat of a mitre fillet

B             7 mm leg + 2 mm excess weld metal

C             mitre fillet with 10mm leg

D             concave fillet with 11mm leg           

 

 

Thanks and Regards
