Connections
PREPARED BY: REYES, DAVID DWIGHT P.
CE511 – CE52FC1
Eccentric welded connections are analyzed in
much the same way as bolted connections,
except that unit lengths of weld replace
individuals fastener in the computations. As in
the case of eccentric bolted connections
loaded in shear, welded shear connections can
be investigated by either or ultimate strength
methods
TYPES OF WELDING PROCESS:
A. Shielded Metal Arc Welding Process (SMAW)
Fillet
welds
Groove welds
Plugged welds
Slot welds
Three Classification of Welds:
2) Based upon types of joints used
Butt joint
Lap joint
Tee joint
Edge
Corner
Three Classification of Welds:
3) Based on the position of welds
Flatweld
Horizontal weld
Vertical weld
Overhead weld
Values of Theoretical Throat for a Fillet Weld
A. For SMAW Process (Shielded – metal – arc welding)
1)When t < 10 mm
Te = t
2. When t > 10 mm
Te = 0.707t + 3 mm
NSCP Specifications for Fillet Welds
1. Effective Area:
The effective area of fillet welds shall be taken as the effective length
times the effective throat thickness
NSCP Specifications for Fillet Welds
2. Effective Length of Fillet Welds;
- except fillet welds in holes and slots shall be the overall length of full
size fillets including returns.
Minimum Size of Fillet Welds
To 6 mm 3 mm
Over 6 to 12 mm 5 mm
Over 12 to 20 mm 6 mm
Over 20 mm 8 mm
Maximum Size of Fillet Welds
𝑨𝒆 = 𝑼𝑨𝒈
Where:
𝐴𝑒 = net area of member
𝐴𝑔 = gross area of member
U = reduction coefficient
Values of Reduction Coefficient U
a) When L > 2W ---- U = 1.0
b) When 2W > L > 1.5W ---- U = 0.87
c) When 1.5W > L and L > W ---- U = 0.75

E xxx b c
Welding Electrodes
E xxx b c
Where:
E = electrode
xxx = two or three digit number indicating the ultimate
tensile strength of the weld metal such as 60ksi
b = digit to indicate the suitability of welding position,
which maybe flat, horizontal, vertical or overhead
b = 1 for suitable all position
b = 2 suitable for horizontal fillets and flat position of
work
c = digit indicating current supply and welding
