Design of Lifting Lug Weld

Design By:

P= 5.5 kip
θ= 70 degrees Angle Between Y-Axis and P
S.F. = 3 Safety Factor
Px = 5.17 kip
Py = 1.88 kip
b= 0.5 in
d= 4.5 in

Aw = 10 in
c= 2.25 in Distance from Px to Plate
Mu = 11.63 kip*in

Sw = 9.00 in2
fb = 1.29 kip/in
ft = 0.19 kip/in
fv = 0.52 kip/in

fr = 1.568 kip/in

D= 2.53 Weld Size in Sixteenths of an Inch

For E70 Electrodes

NOTE: Weld size is based on weld load only. Base material should
also be checked!
