Length of Butt Weld given Average Tensile Stress in Weld Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Length of Weld = Tensile Force on Welded Plates/(Tensile Stress in Weld*Throat Thickness of Weld)
L = P/(σt*ht)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Length of Weld - (Measured in Meter) - The Length of Weld is the linear distance of the welding segment joined by the welded joint.
Tensile Force on Welded Plates - (Measured in Newton) - Tensile Force on Welded Plates is the stretching force acting on the plates that are welded.
Tensile Stress in Weld - (Measured in Pascal) - Tensile Stress in Weld is the average stress experienced by the Weld Beads when the joint plates are brought to tension.
Throat Thickness of Weld - (Measured in Meter) - Throat thickness of weld is the shortest distance from the root to the face of the weld.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Tensile Force on Welded Plates: 16.5 Kilonewton --> 16500 Newton (Check conversion ​here)
Tensile Stress in Weld: 56.4 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 56400000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)
Throat Thickness of Weld: 15.002 Millimeter --> 0.015002 Meter (Check conversion ​here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
L = P/(σt*ht) --> 16500/(56400000*0.015002)
Evaluating ... ...
L = 0.019500945973161
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.019500945973161 Meter -->19.500945973161 Millimeter (Check conversion ​here)
FINAL ANSWER
19.500945973161 19.50095 Millimeter <-- Length of Weld

Multiple Fillet Welds Method

For high Tension Load, a large Length of Weld is required to function without fail. So, instead of one long weld, several short welds are created along different boundaries of the plates such that the effective length remains the same.
