◦ The strength of the weld deposit is more than the strength of the connected
parts under the following condition (VB Bhandari)
1. The component are made of mild steel with less than 0.3% carbon
2. The welding electrode contain 0.15% carbon
3. The electrodes are coated, resulting in shielded welding (protect weld
area during cooling process)
◦ Weld Design Stress by Jennings- The failure of the fillet weld is usually due to
shear at the throat area of the weld. The permissible stresses for a fillet welds
are permissible shear stresses for any direction of applied load
