They can be used to transmit shear force or prevent buckling and separation of lapped
parts.
4.3 effective weld area, length, throat and fillet size
Where is the effective throat measured for shearing forces of a PJP groove weld
reinforced with a fillet weld.
It shall be measured at the shortest distance between the root of the groove and the surface
of the fillet. Less 3 mm (1/8) where such reduction is required by clause 4.3.1.4
When can groove welds be considered CJP groove welds ?
Only when they are welded with a backing bar
When flare bevel groove welds are made with a backing bar what would be the
thickness of the effective throat ?
The effective throat should be equal to the lesser of the thicknesses of the material being
welded.
What should be considered the thickness for a PJP flare bevel groove weld in a butt
joint?
Shall not be greater than the wall thickness of the HSS member or 60% of the thickness of
the planar edge.
What is the maximum a fillet weld T-joint can have for a radii until it is considered a
flare bevel?
, T-joint edges with radii less than or equal to 10mm (3/8) can be considered fillet welds but
are referred to as flare bevel fillet welds.
When is it not necessary for flare bevel groove welds in T-joints to not be flush with
the tangent of the curve that is perpendicular to the horizontal planar ?
When the radii measured is greater than 10mm (3/8).
*The welds may be entirely with in the flare, flush with it or extend beyond by means of a
fillet.
What is the design factor of each process for specifying the effective throat.
SMAW , factor & = 1.7
SAW,FCAW-G,MCAW and GMAW, factor & = 1.5
Where should the effective throat and weld face width for a flare bevel be indicated
on the welding symbol?
The effective throat should be in brackets to the left of the flare bevel symbol. The weld face
width should be noted below the flare bevel symbol
What is the obtuse angle from the cross section of the fillet weld face to the
horizontal planar surface?
The angle of the fillet weld face to the horizontal weld surface shall be greater than or equal
to 90 degrees and no more than 140 degrees
What is the effective throat for flare bevel grove T-joints welded flush to the edge of
the radii?
The effective throat can be figured out with 0.3 x Radii of the rounded edge.
What is the minimum effective throat size for flare bevel groove T-joints ?
Minimum effective throat is 0.25 x Radii of rounded member.
What is the range of effective throat for flare V groove welds?
The effective throat is 0.5 X Radii of rounded member and cannot be smaller than 0.3 X
Radii
4.3.2 Fillet welds
How is the effective area of a fillet weld determined ?
