    Fillet Weld Symbols

    Uploaded by

    shibumb
    Fillet welds are used to join lap joints, corner joints, and T joints. They have a roughly triangular cross-section, with weld metal deposited in the corner between two members. The size of the weld legs is written by the symbol, with the perpendicular leg always on the left. If both legs are the same size only one dimension is given, while unequal legs require both sizes. The length of the weld is written on the right of the symbol. Intermittent welds note the length and spacing of each weld segment separated by a dash.
