JOINTS
1. Light in weight
2. Efficiency of the joint can be as high as 100%
3. Lower Cost
4. Ease of fabrication
5. Less noisy
6. Air Tight & Water Tight
7. Stronger than riveted joint
8. Can also be used as a repair medium
1. Edge Joint
2. Lap Joint
3. Fillet Joint
4. Butt Joint
5. Corner joint
Edge Joint
This joint is used to joint the two parts together
Lap Joint
The lap joint is obtained by overlapping the plates &
then welding the edges of the plates. The X-section of
the joint is triangular
Throat of weld
Leg of weld Throat does not include
reinforcement

Types of Welding Joints
Lap Joint with Parallel Loading
Welding is done parallel to the direction of the loading
Fillet Joint
These are normally T-Joints.

Example Weld C.G. Location
1”
Find polar moment of inertia of the
weld line based on a unit shear plane
thickness
Iyy = 2(1/12)(1)(2)3 = 1.33 in3
Find the safe bending force Ixx = 2(2)(1)(1)3 = 4 in3
F if the permissible shear
stress in the welds is 20 ksi.
