Length of Fillet Leg from Transverse Shrinkage in T-Joints Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Length of Fillet Leg in T Joint = (Transverse Shrinkage*Thickness of Bottom Plate)/1.02
h_t = (s*t_b)/1.02
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Length of Fillet Leg in T Joint - (Measured in Meter) - Length of Fillet Leg in T Joint is the length of corner of a joint made of two pieces placed at approximately 90 degrees to each other.
Transverse Shrinkage - (Measured in Meter) - Transverse Shrinkage is a shrinkage of the metal result of contraction of the base metal.
Thickness of Bottom Plate - (Measured in Meter) - Thickness of Bottom Plate is the thickness of the plate that is being welded and placed flat on ground.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Transverse Shrinkage: 4 Millimeter --> 0.004 Meter (Check conversion here)
Thickness of Bottom Plate: 3 Millimeter --> 0.003 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

h_t = (s*t_b)/1.02 --> (0.004*0.003)/1.02

Evaluating ... ...

h_t = 1.17647058823529E-05

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.17647058823529E-05 Meter -->0.0117647058823529 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

0.0117647058823529 ≈ 0.011765 Millimeter <-- Length of Fillet Leg in T Joint

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)

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.
