Indicated: Determine The Length of A Fillet Weld Required by Fig. 6.99. Assume An 8-mm Shop Weld

The document provides an example problem to determine the length of a fillet weld required to carry a load. It is calculating the length of a 300 mm fillet weld connecting a T-section to an I-beam, which is determined to be able to carry the required load of 262.5 kN. A second example problem determines the size of a fillet weld connecting an H-beam to a column, with a shear force of 180 kN and bending moment of 25 kNm. The required weld size is calculated to be 5 mm. A third example calculates the depth of a bracket plate transmitting a load at an eccentricity, determining the depth should be 150 mm with a direct shear stress of 53
