cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)
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.
Load on Parallel Fillet Weld - (Measured in Newton) - Load on Parallel Fillet Weld is the force, or the load applied perpendicular to the specimen cross-section.
Shear Stress in Parallel Fillet Weld - (Measured in Pascal) - Shear stress in parallel fillet weld is the force tending to cause deformation of the fillet weld by slippage along a plane or planes parallel to the imposed stress.
Leg of Weld - (Measured in Meter) - The Leg of Weld is the distance from the joint root to the toe of the weld.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Load on Parallel Fillet Weld: 111080 Newton --> 111080 Newton No Conversion Required
Shear Stress in Parallel Fillet Weld: 38 Newton per Square Millimeter --> 38000000 Pascal (Check conversion ​here)

Multi Fillet Welds

The Welded Joints are weaker in Shear when compared to in Tension. So Effective Length of Weld required in shear is more. This is tackled by welding at multiple edges of the plates, thus increasing the net Effective Length of the weld without increasing the buffer zone of Base Plates.
