Verification
This program was verified the following ways
1 Hand calculations
2 Comparison with other commercial software and publications
Although every effort was made to make this software as accurate and easy to understand as possible, there
is no way to guarantee it's accuracy. There are assumptions that must be made concerning welder and process efficiency.
Process efficiency is built into the program and the information was obtained from numerous publications.
Welder efficiency is supplied by the user. This is one of the most basic factors in the cost calculations and must be determined
as accurately as possible in order to make sound evaluations of welding cost.
Welder Efficiency
Welder Efficiency - Welder Efficiency is the percentage of a welders working day that is actually spent welding.
A 45% (.45) operating factor means that only 45% of the welders day is actually spent welding (4.4 hrs). The balance of time
is spent installing a new electrode or wire, cleaning slag, positioning the weldment, cleaning spatter from the welding gun,
preparing the joint, moving parts, coffee break etc. If the actual operating factor is not known, the following averages can be
used.
30% may be used with the shielded metal arc welding process(SMAW)
50% may be used with the Gas metal arc welding process (GMAW)
45% may be used with the FluxCored Arc Welding process (FCAW)
45%-50% may be used with the Submerged Arc Welding process (SAW)
50% may be used with any automatic Welding process
Weld shops in manufacturing plants normally have established labor and overhead rates for each department. Labor and
overhead rates can vary greatly from plant to plant, and also with location.

Process efficiency (E) is based on the process type and describes how many pounds of weld metal can be expected
from a given weight of the electrode or welding wire purchased. As an example, 100 pounds of a flux cored
electrode with an efficiency of 85% will produce approximately 85 pounds of weld metal, whereas 100 pounds
of shielded-metal-arc electrode with an efficiency of 65% will produce approximately 65 pounds of weld metal

Leg Size- The leg size shown above is what is required. For cost calculations 10% is added to the size shown. This is consistant with normal shop practices.
In other words welders will typically produce a weld that is 10% larger than what is required.
Fillet welds are assumed to be convex rather than flat for cost calculations (See Drawings to the right.
