Thickness of Bottom Plate in T-Joints Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

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

Variables Used

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.
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.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Length of Fillet Leg in T Joint: 0.01 Millimeter --> 1E-05 Meter (Check conversion here)
Transverse Shrinkage: 4 Millimeter --> 0.004 Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

t_b = (1.02*h_t)/s --> (1.02*1E-05)/0.004

Evaluating ... ...

t_b = 0.00255

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.00255 Meter -->2.55 Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

2.55 Millimeter <-- Thickness of Bottom Plate

(Calculation completed in 00.005 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.
