The tensile strength of the welded joint for double fillet is (where s = Leg or size of the weld, $$l$$ = Length of weld and $${\sigma _{\text{t}}}$$ = Allowable tensile stress for weld metal)
A
$$0.5\,{\text{s}}l{\sigma _{\text{t}}}$$
B
$${\text{s}}l{\sigma _{\text{t}}}$$
C
$$\sqrt 2 \,{\text{s}}l{\sigma _{\text{t}}}$$
D
$$2\,{\text{s}}l{\sigma _{\text{t}}}$$
Correct Answer: $$\sqrt 2 \,{\text{s}}l{\sigma _{\text{t}}}$$
