Fillet Weld size (Leg length)
- Thread starter MO2
- Start date
The required weld size would normally be based on the load applied and the allowable stress of the weld. I assume the pipe standard would give limitations on minimum and maximum size of welds, type of welds, etc., that could be used. You can also check the stresses in the pipe wall.
Give us a free body diagram showing how the plate is to be welded ( longitudinally, circumferentially or to some transverse angle to the long axis of the pipe) and the forces imposed on the pipe and plate and the type of welding rods to be used.
