Since the weld is weaker than the plate due to slag and blow holes, therefore the weld
is given a reinforcement which may be taken as 10% of the plate thickness.

In order to allow for starting and stopping of the bead, 12.5 mm should be added
to the length of each weld obtained by the above expression.

Circular fillet weld subjected to bending moment

When the shaft is subjected to a bending moment only, the maximum

stress is given by the bending equation.

DESIGN OF WELDED JOINT

Eccentrically Loaded Welded Joints

CASE-1
The joint will be subjected to the following two types of stresses:
1. Direct shear stress due to the shear force P acting at the welds
2. Bending stress due to the bending moment P e.

DESIGN OF WELDED JOINT

EXAMPLE-1
A rectangular steel plate is welded as a cantilever to a vertical column
and supports a single concentrated load of 60 KN.

Determine the weld size if shear stress in the same is not to exceed 140
MPa.

DESIGN OF WELDED JOINT

EXAMPLE-2
A plate 75 mm wide and 12.5 mm thick is joined with another plate by a
single transverse weld and a double parallel fillet weld. The maximum
tensile and shear stresses are 70 MPa and 56 MPa respectively.
Find the length of each parallel fillet weld, if the joint is subjected to both
static and fatigue loading.

DESIGN OF WELDED JOINT

EXAMPLE-3
A 50 mm diameter solid shaft is welded to a flat plate.
If the size of the weld is 15 mm, find the maximum normal and shear
stress in the weld.

EXAMPLE-4
Design the circular fillet weld subjected to load of 10KN with a
eccentricity distance of 500mm and rod diameter of 55mm and
rod length of 800mm. Use E70 electrodes for welding.
