Regarding the weld height dimension of fillet welds
Thread Content
Dear experts, for the welding of corner welds on pressure vessels (with the welds capable of withstanding a pressure of 13 kilograms), and given a plate thickness of 10 mm, what are the appropriate dimensions and angles for the root gap (i.e., the weld height)? Urgent, waiting online for your experienced answers
In the manufacture of pressure vessels, the height of fillet welds is determined based on the thinner plate; for example, if the thicknesses of adjacent plates are 10 mm and 12 mm, the 10 mm value shall be used. Grooving is performed to ensure full penetration, and it depends on the nature of the medium and the stress conditions of the equipment; each case must be analyzed individually. If the pressure is low, the material is non-toxic, and it is of ordinary quality, then grooving may not be necessary
