Figure 4.9

From experiments it is known that bead weld destroyed by a cut
in cross-section, which coincides with the bisector AB of the right
angle. By working height of the bead we take the value
h k cos45  0,7k .
Checking the strength of bead weld is done by the formula
P
      ,
0,7kl cut

where l – the total calculated length of all beads, which receive
the force P . The estimated length of the bead is taken on 10mm
shorter than the actual length.
The allowable stress on a cut for bead welds
    0,5 0,65    ,
cut t
where   – allowable tensile stress for the main material of

construction.
