Define Fillet Weld?
Fillet welding refers to the process of joining two pieces of metal together when they are perpendicular or at an angle. These welds are commonly referred to as tee joints, which are two pieces of metal perpendicular to each other, or lap joints, which are two pieces of metal that overlap and are welded at the edges. The weld is triangular in shape and may have a concave, flat or convex surface depending on the welder’s technique. Welders use fillet welds when connecting flanges to pipes and welding cross sections of infrastructure, and when bolts aren't strong enough and will wear off easily.[
How to Calculate Leg of Weld given Maximum Shear Stress-induced in Plane?
Leg of Weld given Maximum Shear Stress-induced in Plane calculator uses Leg of Weld = 1.21*Load per Unit Length in Transverse Fillet Weld/(Maximum Shear Stress in Transverse Fillet Weld) to calculate the Leg of Weld, The Leg of Weld given Maximum Shear Stress-induced in Plane formula is defined as the distance from the joint root to the toe of the weld. Leg of Weld is denoted by hl symbol.
