Week 3 Assignment 3 Solution Full Marks 20 1 (A) Four Times The Size of Weld
Q.1 The effective length of butt weld should not be less than 1
(a) four times the size of weld
Solution hints:
Lec 11 Design of Butt Welds, Slide No. 6.

(b) Bolt 4
Solution hints:
In the case of inclined load, a bolt nearest to the load axis will be
critical. Extending the line of action of the load, the nearest bolt is bolt 4.
Q.9 Polar moment of inertia of weld, Ip is equal to 1
(c) Ix + Iy
Solution hints:
See lecture 15 Design of eccentric connection, slide no 4
Q.10 When the load line coincides with the centroid of the bolt group, the
bolts are subjected to 1
(a) shear only
