q = 4fpxdxbf
(d+bf)²Fp = 0.06

1. Web Weld
Shear Force = 8.0 kN
Total Weld Length around Web = 169.9768 x 2
= 339.954 mm
Shear Force / Weld length Sweb = 8.00128x10³ / 339.9536
= 23.54 N/mm

Tensile Force = 55.1 kN


Tensile load in Web = (Tensile Force x Web area) / Area
= (55.104 x 6.5024 x 169.9768) / 11935.46
= 5.1 kN
Tension / Weld length Tweb = 5.1x10³ / 339.9536
= 15.0 N/mm

Resultant Force / Weld length Rw = √((23.54)² + (15.01)²)


Rw = 27.9 N/mm

Weld size reqd. for calculated force Ww = 27.92 / 87.74577


= 0.32 mm
Weld size reqd. as per code (Table J2.4, ASD) = 6.50 mm
Permissible maximum weld size Wwreq = 6.50 mm
Provided Weld size Wwprov = 5.08 mm Safe

2. Flange Weld
Total Shear Force = 14.0 kN
Shear Force / Flange = 7 kN
Total Weld Length = 197.7898 + (197.7898 - 6.5024)
= 389.1 mm
Shear Force / Weld length Sflange = 7x10³ / 389.0772
= 18.0 N/mm

Tensile Force = 55.1 kN


Tensile Capacity of Flange = (0.5 xTensile Force x Flange area) / Area
= (0.5 x 55.104 x 197.7898 x 10.0076) / 11935.46
= 4.6 kN
Tension / Weld length Tflange = 4.57x10³ / 389.0772
= 11.7 N/mm

Resultant Force / Weld length Rf = √((17.99)² + (11.74)²)


Rf = 21.5 N/mm

Weld size reqd. as per calculated force Wf = 21.49 / 87.74577


= 0.24 mm
Weld size reqd. as per code (Table J2.4, ASD) = 8.00 mm
Permissible maximum weld size Wfreq = 8.00 mm
Provided Weld size Wfprov = 5.08 mm Safe
