Design Concept

Weld Joint
Depends on: Welding Location Preparation needed, welding equipment used, and Application The basic weld joint consists of: Butt joint, Lap joint , T-joint, edge and corner

Terminologies

Joint design identifies, the shape , dimensions, and

configuration of the joint The individual workpieces of a joint are called members . Three types members : nonbutting member, butting member , and splice member A butting member is a joint member that is prevented, by the other member from movement in one direction perpendicular to its thickness dimension A non-butting member is a joint member that is free to move in any direction perpendicular to its thickness dimension A splice member is the work piece that spans the joint in a spliced joint

Types of Welds

Many welds can be made by various types of joints Factors to be consider in choosing joint geometry and weld types: accessibility to the joint for welding type of welding process being used suitability to the structural design cost of welding

Types of Weld

groove, fillet, plug, slot, stud, spot, projection, seam, back or backing weld, surfacing and flange.
