Normal stress
where:
F | acting force [N, lb] | |
δ | weld direction angle [°] | |
A | throat area of the weld [mm 2 , in 2 ] |
Shear stress
where:
F | acting force [N, lb] | |
δ | weld direction angle [°] | |
A | throat area of the weld [mm 2 , in 2 ] |
Resultant reduced stress
where:
σ | normal stress [MPa, psi] | |
τ | shear stress [MPa, psi] |
Reference stress
where:
σ | normal stress [MPa, psi] | |
