Fillet Weld Under Torsional Loading Calculator
A fillet weld under torsional loading is a common scenario in structural and mechanical engineering. The calculation for the stress in a fillet weld due to torsional loading involves several factors, including the geometry of the weld, the applied torque, and the properties of the material. Here's how you can calculate the stress and the design strength of a fillet weld under torsional loading.
Basic Concept:
When a torsional load is applied to a member that has a fillet weld, the weld experiences shear stress. The stress will be distributed along the throat of the weld, which is typically the weakest cross-section of the weld.
The general approach is to determine the shear stress in the weld throat based on the applied torque and the dimensions of the weld.
