Perpendicular Beveled Plug Weld Joint Calculation
The following equations will determine the shear stress for a Perpendicular Beveled Plug Weld Joint.
Shear Stress in Weld Base Area
Where: | |
= Shear Stress [MPa,psi] | |
d |
= Diameter of plug weld [mm, in] |
F |
= Force [N, lb] |
Shear Stress in Weld Peripheral Area
Where: | |
= Shear Stress | |
d | = Diameter of plug weld [mm, in] |
s | = Plate thickness [mm,in] |
i | =Number of welds |
F | = Force [N, lb] |
