How to Calculate Maximum Shear Stress given Load Carried by Parallel Fillet Weld?
Maximum Shear Stress given Load Carried by Parallel Fillet Weld calculator uses Shear Stress = Load on weld/(1.414*Length of Parallel Fillet Weld*Thickness of Plate) to calculate the Shear Stress, Maximum shear stress given load carried by parallel fillet weld is defined as the maximum concentrated shear force in a small area. It is very critical for a structural engineer to locate and evaluate the maximum shear stress in a member in order to design the member in such a way as to resist it. Shear Stress is denoted by 𝜏 symbol.
