Depth of First V-groove for Minimum Distortion of Butt Joint Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Depth of The First V Groove = (0.62*Depth of The Last V Groove+0.12*Depth of Root Face)/0.38
t₁ = (0.62*t₂+0.12*t₃)/0.38
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Depth of The First V Groove - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of The First V Groove is the depth from surface of plate to the root face.
Depth of The Last V Groove - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of The Last V Groove is the distance from the bottom of the plate to root face.
Depth of Root Face - (Measured in Meter) - Depth of root face is the thickness of that portion of plate which contains root face.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Depth of The Last V Groove: 2.6 Millimeter --> 0.0026 Meter (Check conversion here)
Depth of Root Face: 6.5 Millimeter --> 0.0065 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t₁ = (0.62*t₂+0.12*t₃)/0.38 --> (0.62*0.0026+0.12*0.0065)/0.38

Evaluating ... ...

t₁ = 0.00629473684210526

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00629473684210526 Meter -->6.29473684210526 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

6.29473684210526 ≈ 6.294737 Millimeter <-- Depth of The First V Groove

What is called Distortion in welding terms ?

One of the major problems found with weldments is the distortion. Distortion is caused mainly because of the shrinkage that take place in weldments. The shrinkage taking place in a weldment depends upon the geometry and type of the weld. There are three types of distortions possible in weldments.

(a) Transverse shrinkage occurring perpendicular to the weld line.
(b) Longitudinal shrinkage occurring parallel to the weld line, which is very small of the order of about 0.1% of the weld length and hence can be neglected.
(c) Angular change as a rotation about the weld line.
