Question

In a fillet welded joint, the weakest area of the weld is

एक पट्टिका वेल्डेड जोड़ में, वेल्ड का सबसे कमजोर क्षेत्र है

A.

toe

B.

root

C.

throat

D.

face

Answer ( Option C)

throat

Solution

  • The fillet welds are subjected to tensile stress.
  • The minimum cross-section of the fillet is at the throat.
  • Therefore the failure due to tensile stress occurs at the throat section.
  • Thus the weakest area of the weld is the throat.
  • One other approach is that the other parts of the weld are subjected to normal stress and shear stress.
  • But in the throat in addition to both bending is also there which makes it weakest.
