The bracket welded to the vertical plate by means of two fillet welds. Calculate size of the welds if P=40kN, leg=4mm and e=400mm. Maximum permissible value of shear stress in the weld is 70N/mm².

The bracket welded to the vertical plate by means of two fillet welds. Calculate size of the welds if P=40kN, leg=4mm and e=400mm. Maximum permissible value of shear stress in the weld is 70N/mm². Correct Answer 2.1mm

σ=My/I where y=250mm,I=2xtx500ᵌ/12 and τ₁=P/2xtx500.τ=√σ²+τ₁² or 104/t=70 and h=t/0.707.
