Weld Analysis Standards

Weld Analysis Standards

Weld Analysis Standards

(OP)
Dear Eng-Tip community,

I am looking for references for the design and strength analysis of welded connections. In particular, I am wondering if there is an equivalent to the existent guidelines for systematic analysis of threaded joint (such as the German VDI2230).

I have checked some books of machinery and mechanical engineering, such as Shigley. However, the methodology presented in those references is quite simple and I would like something in more detail.

Could you suggest any standards or handbooks?

Thank you very much,

Kind regards.

Try "Design of Weldments" by Blodgett

RE: Weld Analysis Standards

If you want standardized calculations similar to VDI2230, then you need to look at standards like AWS D1.1, EN 1993, EN 1993-1-8, and steel construction codes like AISC LRFD.
