(i) Effective throat thickness, t = k × s (where k = factor depending upon the angle between fusion faces and s = size of weld) Here assuming angle =90° therefore, k = 0.7 t = 0.7 × 8 = 5.6mm (ii) Effective throat thickness, t = k × s Here s is taken the thinner value of the plates Therefore, t = 0Read more
(i) Effective throat thickness, t = k × s (where k = factor depending upon the angle between fusion faces and s = size of weld)
Here assuming angle =90°
therefore, k = 0.7
t = 0.7 × 8 = 5.6mm
(ii) Effective throat thickness, t = k × s
Here s is taken the thinner value of the plates
Therefore,
t = 0.7 × 6 = 4.2mm
