Example 1. A plate 100 mm wide and 10 mm thick is to be
welded to another plate by means of double parallel fillets.
The plates are subjected to a static load of 80 kN. Find the
length of weld if the permissible shear stress in the weld does
not exceed 55 MPa.
Example 2. A 50 mm diameter solid shaft
is welded to a flat plate by 10 mm fillet
weld as shown in Fig. Find the maximum
torque that the welded joint can sustain if
the maximum shear stress intensity in the
weld material is not to exceed 80 MPa.
Example. 3. A plate 1 m long, 60 mm
thick is welded to another plate at right
angles to each other by 15 mm fillet
weld, as shown in Fig. 10.13. Find the
maximum torque that the welded joint
can sustain if the permissible shear
stress intensity in the weld material is
not to exceed 80 MPa.
Stresses for Welded Joints
The stresses in welded joints are difficult to determine
because of the variable and unpredictable parameters like
homogeneity of the weld metal, thermal stresses in the welds,
changes of physical properties due to high rate of cooling etc.
The stresses are obtained, on the following assumptions:
1. The load is distributed uniformly along the entire length of
the weld, and
2. The stress is spread uniformly over its effective section.

The following table shows the stresses for welded joints for
joining ferrous metals with mild steel electrode under steady
and fatigue or reversed load.
Example 10.5. A plate 75 mm wide and 12.5 mm thick is joined with
another plate by a single transverse weld and a double parallel fillet
weld as shown in Fig. The maximum tensile and shear stresses are 70
MPa and 56 MPa respectively. Find the length of each parallel fillet
weld, if the joint is subjected to both static and fatigue loading.
Example 10.8. A 200 X150 X10 mm angle is to be welded to a
steel plate by fillet welds as shown in Fig. If the angle is
subjected to a static load of 200 kN, find the length of weld at
the top and bottom. The allowable shear stress for static
loading may be taken as 75 MPa.
