Weld Consumable Calculator

The document provides information for calculating weld metal weights for single V butt welds and fillet welds, including dimensions and welding processes. It includes tables with weld metal weights per meter of weld in kilograms for varying angles, plate thicknesses, widths, and fillet sizes. An example calculation is provided for a single V butt weld with 12mm plate thickness welded with flux cored arc welding using 261kg of consumables over 220 meters.
