In this zone, the parent metal is subject to a hardening treatment
and can consequently become brittle.

for lap joint l would be the sum of twice overlapped length plus

In practice, weld calculations are principally concerned with fillet


welds since these account for approximately 80% of all structural
welds.
For weld design, three fundamental assumptions are made

•The welds are homogeneous and isotropic elements.


•The parts connected by the welds are rigid and their
deformations are negligible.
•Only nominal stresses due to external loads are considered.
Effects of residual stresses, stress concentrations and shape of
the welds are neglected in static design

Eurocode 3 specifies that

the filler metal shall have mechanical properties (yield strength,


ultimate tensile strength, elongation at failure and minimum Charpy
V-notch energy value) equal to, or better than, the corresponding
properties of the parent material.
Therefore, for weld calculation and design, the strength of the parent
material is normally taken as the reference strength.
σ1 = Fσ⊥ normal stress
perpendicular to plane of
the throat area,
τ1 = Fτ⊥ shear stress in
the plane of the throat
area, transverse to the
weld axis.
τ2 = Fτ// shear stress in
the plane of the throat
area, parallel to the weld
axis.

normal stress σ2 is not considered because the cross-section of the


weld is very small and has negligible strength in comparison with the
strength of the throat area subjected to the shear stress component τ2

Mean Stress Method (main text)

Weld strength equals to shear strength, independent of direction of


force acting on it. Since weld is weakest in pure shear mean stress
method always gives results on the safe side.

F/(a⋅1) ≤ fvw = fu/[√3.βwγMw]

Eurocode 3 specifies that the design resistance for a long weld in a


lap joint shall be multiplied by a reduction factor βlw to allow for the
effects of non-uniform stress distribution.
If the lap joint is longer than 150a

βLW = 1.2 – 0.2Lj/150a ≤ 1

Lj is the overall length of the lap in the


direction of the force transfer

For fillet welds longer than 1.7 metres connecting transverse


stiffeners in plated members

βLW = 1.1 - Lw/17 0.6 ≤ βLW ≤ 1.0

Lw is the length of the weld (in metres)


BASE METAL CHECKING

Whatever weld design method is used it is also necessary to ascertain


that the base metal of the connected parts has sufficient resistance.

•Tensile failure in member 1 (path 1-1)

•Tensile failure in member 2 (path 2-2)


•Failure in member 2,
--along the line 3-3,
--with tensile failure
(path b-c)
--shearing rupture
(paths a-b and c-d).

In this case, the total resistance can be taken as the sum of the
ultimate strength of each individual path.

γM2 is the partial safety factor against ultimate = 1.25


fu2 is the ultimate deign strength of member 2
Partial safety factors

Partial safety factor γM for connections shall be taken as:


resistance of bolted connections: γMb = 1.25
resistance of welded connections: γMw = 1.25

Partial safety factor γM for cross-section shall be taken as:


resistance of Class 1, 2 or 3 γM0 = 1.1
resistance of net section at bolt holes: γM2 = 1.25

In angles connected by one leg, the welded lap joint end connection may be allowed for by adpoting
an effective cross-sectional area and then treating as concentrically loaded. For equal-leg angle the
effective area is taken as equal to the gross section.
Checking geometrics of weld
In order to resist the load, welded length should be larger than max(40, 6a)
max ( 40 ⋅ mm , 6 ⋅ a) = 40 mm < l2 = 50 mm Thus, the load is taken by all welds.
If lap joints is larger than 150a, the joints will be long joints and the resistance of weld should be
reduced.
l1 = 55 mm < 150 ⋅ a = 450 mm No reduction is necessary
