Static load capacity of the parallel loaded fillet welds.xls

Rating:

Description

KNOWN: Two statically loaded plates of known strength are fillet-welded together with specified weld geometry and weld strength.

FIND: Determine the static load capacity of the parallel loaded welds.

ASSUMPTIONS: 1) The plates themselves do not fail; shear failure occurs in the weld throat area.

Calculation Reference
Fundamentals Of Machine Component Design - Juvinall

To determine the static load capacity of parallel loaded fillet welds, considering two statically loaded plates with known strength, specified weld geometry, and weld strength, and assuming that shear failure occurs in the weld throat area while the plates themselves do not fail, you can follow these steps:

  1. Determine the weld throat area: Calculate the cross-sectional area of the weld throat. This is the effective area of the fillet weld that will be subjected to shear stress.

  2. Calculate the ultimate shear strength of the weld: The ultimate shear strength (Fu) of the weld is a material property that represents the maximum shear stress the weld can withstand before failure. The ultimate shear strength can be obtained from the weld material specifications.

  3. Calculate the static load capacity: The static load capacity of the weld is determined by the product of the weld throat area and the ultimate shear strength:

    Static Load Capacity = Weld Throat Area * Ultimate Shear Strength

By following these steps and plugging in the appropriate values for the weld throat area and the ultimate shear strength, you can determine the static load capacity of the parallel loaded fillet welds. It is important to ensure that the applied load does not exceed the static load capacity to avoid failure in the weld throat area.

It sounds like XLC has not installed properly. Can you try the following To install XLC download and run XLC_Ribbon_setup.exe. XLC works with Windows versions of Excel - 2007, 2010, 2013 & 2016 (both 32 bit and 64 bit versions are supported). It does not work on any Mac, web or reduced versions of Excel. Any installation problems please browse to the installation directory (usually ?C:\Program Files (x86)\XLC?) and open XLC.xlam directly. Also check that the XLC Add-In is activated Excel> File> Options> Add-Ins> Manage Excel Add-ins Go button. XLC.xlam must be in

Is there another way to enter the code? I do not have an XLC settings button under the blue (i) button.

John, All sorted and up and running with full version. Your instructions are clear. Thanks for the effort.
