    Welds Ex 1

    This document summarizes three alternatives for designing a welded connection to carry the full tension capacity of 2PL10x200 steel plates: 1) A lap joint with 8mm fillet welds along the width was determined to provide sufficient capacity. 2) A full penetration butt weld joint was insufficient unless a longer load path was provided. 3) Using splice plates with 8mm fillet welds on both sides could also provide the required capacity. The splice plates would each be PL10x50x200.

    Welded connection: Example 1


    Ex: Design a welded connection to carry the full tension capacity of 2PL10x200. Solution:
    Alternative 1: Assume a lap joint and fillet welds along the width.

    Data: Fy = 345 MPa (350W Steel), Fu = 450 MPa It is customary to choose the weld metal to have a matching strength with plate metal. Choose E49XX electrode to match the weld metal to the plate metal. Xu=490 MPa (E49XX) b = 200 mm, t = 10 mm max weld size D < t-2mm Weld line angle with the direction of force Overlap = 50 mm (5t, 25 mm) Plate capacity: Path 1-1: Yielding of gross c/s Tr = AgFy = resistance factor for steel = 0.9 Ag = gross c/s area = bt Tr = 621 kN

    Path 2-2:

    Rupture of net c/s. No net section for this case.

    There is no shear lag effect since the ends of the plate are welded. Hence the entire plate width receives the force uniformly. Weld design: In the present case, the required size of the weld is unknown. We do not know if the weld needs to be placed on both the overlap lines for the entire width of the plate. We will assume that the weld is placed on the full width and compute the size. If the size comes out to be too small, we can increase the weld size and reduce the weld length. If the weld size comes out to be too great for the thickness of the plate, we need to increase the length of the weld by creating other lines of weld. The welds are in fillet weld configuration. Weld metal capacity: w = 0.67 Angle between weld line and applied force, = 90o Weld size, D (=?) Total fillet weld length, Lw = 2b Area of effective weld throat, Aw = LwD/2

Solving, D > 7.69 mm. Use 8 mm weld (=t-2 O.K) Note: we need not have done this calculation for weld metal since for 350W steel with matching electrodes, weld metal strength governs only if weld line angle is less than 45o with the direction of the applied force. If we needed extra capacity than this, we may need to provide longer fillet weld lines. A possible scheme is shown below.

    Splice plates allow the main plates to be in the same plane and avoid any eccentricity. The splice plate will have a combined area equal to the c/s area (or greater) of the base plate. Thus the splice plates will have enough tensile strength to carry the plate force. All calculations are as in the case of fillet weld alternative 1. The only difference is that we need extra plates and two extra welds of the same size. Because of the weld size, the splice plates have to remain 10mm thick. Otherwise, splice plates can have t/2 each. The length of the splice plate can be 50mm similar to the lap length. Use 2PL10x50x200 with 8mm fillet welds.
