Question
Two plates of dimensions 150 mm × 16 mm and 150 mm × 12 mm at their welding edges are joined by butt welding as shown in the figure.
What is the maximum tension that this single V-butt weld joint can transmit? The permissible tensile stress in the plates is 150 MPa.
A.
168.75 kN
B.
270.65 kN
C.
218.25 kN
D.
1350 kN
Answer ( Option A)
