Concept:

Welded Joint: Welded joint is a localized permanent joint that can be produced with or without the application of heat, with or without the application of pressure or with pressure alone and with or without application of pressure.

Welded joints are primarily of two types:

  1. Fillet weld
  2. Butt weld

Fillet weld joint:  It is obtained by overlapping the plates and then welding the edges of the plates.

Butt weld joint: The butt joint is obtained by placing the plates edge to edge.

Fillet weld is further dived into two categories:

  • Parallel fillet weld
  • Transverse fillet weld

Design of a Parallel Fillet weld joint:

When load acts parallel to the length of the weld, the weld is called parallel fillet weld. Parallel fillet welds are designed for shear strength.
