WELD PENETRATION

by P.S.Prasanna Kumar
(Bangalore)

for 1 inch fillet what should be the weld penetration depth for MS material

---------------------------------------------

anything past the root of the joint is ok.

the weld nugget profile should be uniform but as long as it penetrates the root of the joint, it complies with code unless there are more specific requirements imposed by the engineering authority.
