What do you understand by the term welded joint? How id differs from riveted joint? A steel plate strip of 150 mm width and 10 mm thickness is welded by a compound fillet weld to another plate. The strip is required to carry an axial load P such that P is equal to tensile load capacity of the strip with a factor of safety of 2.5 on ultimate tensile strength of strip. Calculate the length of the fillet weld and show on diagram. Ultimate tensile strength of strip material is 380 MPa. Find fillet length if Pmin and Pmax = P. 2
