10 Weight
Per Meter of Weld Metal for Fillet Welds and
Elements of Common Butt Joints (Kg/m) Steel Instructions
1. Make a drawing of the
cross-section of the joint to exact scale. 2. Divide
the cross-section into right triangles, rectangles and sketch
in the desired reinforcement. 3. Dimension
the thickness, angles angle leg lengths, root opening and
the length and height of the reinforcement. 4. Total
the weight per meter of each of the elements from the chart
for the weight per meter of the weld. Kg/m
