Dec 6, 2005 · 1. A double fillet weld symbol is shown in Fig 8(B) for the combined intermittent and continuous weld both sides of the T-Joint. Go to Sections 5.1.2 (refers you to some figs) and also look at figure just below Section 5.1.3 for further explanation.
Weld Symbol Clarification 1 - Eng-Tips
Jun 14, 2012 · In this case, having to do a weld all around, the maximum fillet weld size would be equal to the thickness of the adjoining member-1/16" per AISC a-36 (13th edition), with 1/4" minimum weld. If you are just developing the weld for a shear tab with a thickness = tp, an easy rule of thumb is 5/8*tp.
WELD SYMBOL HELP - Structural engineering general discussion
Nov 20, 2018 · BUGGAR - when you use a weld symbol that calls for stitch welds, you can add a note in the tail specifying that the ends of the weld should be continuous for a set distance (instead of stitched). Essentially you are telling the welder - "give me stitch welds but at the ends don't provide intermittent stitch welds but rather a continuous 4 inch ...
Weld symbol clarification for "seal" weld
Mar 10, 2010 · The weld they specified was a fillet weld all around the cap with the notation "seal typ." in the tail of the weld symbols. The shop used .030 hard wire and welded the caps all around with a standard "fillet" weld. Its hard to really call it a fillet weld because the conditions of the weld don't really allow for a fillet.
Question on all-around weld symbol involving different weld …
Jan 24, 2020 · The 4th side is an overhead weld between bottom flange of the anchor frame beam and the pile cap. The underside weld is not called out separately, so weld top 3 sides only. Second interpretation - the all-around weld symbol with the arrow pointing to the top of the pile implies all 4 sides of to be welded. Does not matter if there is change in ...

Jun 10, 2021 · Good Morning, I'm sorry if this is an obvious question, but I have received drawings with a stitch weld symbol indicating "12" EACH END". This is for a detail with a WT welded to the bottom of an existing W section for reinforcement. I am expecting that this means a 12" continuous weld each...
Weld Length and Pitch - AWS (welding) Code Issues | Eng-Tips
Oct 23, 2003 · Weld length - the minimum length of each weld segment permitted Unwelded spaces - pitch minus length = the maximum unwelded space between weld segments With that in mind, in the absence of a workmanship standard, a continuous weld that has the proper size (leg dimension) would be acceptable even if the intermittent weld was specified as 4 inch ...
Intermittent Fillet Weld Standard of Practice 1 - Eng-Tips
Apr 2, 2007 · Assuming both the intermittent fillet weld and the continuous fillet weld do meet the minimum size requirement, the continuous weld is more cost effective. As an example consider the following: You have a choice of a 1/2 inch intermittent fillet weld 4 inches long on 8 inch centers or a continuous 1/4 inch fillet weld.
TUBE MITER WELDS - Structural engineering general discussion
Nov 12, 2023 · I don't believe that there is a prequalified AWS CJP weld for this situation. Prequalified CJP welds require either access to the back of the weld (for backgouging)or a CONTINUOUS backing bar. A continuous backing bar is hard enough for a straight splice. Once you introduce the 90 degree corner I don't think it will be practical.
weld designation on back to back channels 5 - Eng-Tips
Oct 15, 2007 · You could put straps across the top and bottom or just a continuous strip and use fillet welds. The reason for putting in a groove is that you can be certain that the parts are actually welded together. Without weld prep you can get anything from zero penetration to an unknown amount and they will both look the same.
