Describe the symbols used for continuous and intermittent fillet welds

1. Fundamental Concepts
Welding symbols are a universal system of signs, rules and conventions
for conveying and placing information on drawings. They are intended to
facilitate communication between the designer, fabrication and inspection
personnel and provide the means for graphical representation of welds,
brazes and nondestructive methods on drawings.

The symbols do not eliminate the need for appropriate interaction


between the design, drafting and production personnel and any issues
should be resolved before production starts. To avoid costly redesign and/
Or repairs, symbols must be understood and used. It is important that all
relevant personnel in the manufacturing chain be trained and familiarized
with the concepts and application of welding symbols.

1.1 Weld Symbols


Weld symbols designate and graphically identify each type of weld. The
shape of the weld symbol is drawn to reflect the configuration of the
fusion faces, as seen in vertical cross section of the joint. This is illustrated

In the placing of weld symbols on the reference line there is one important
convention that must be observed for weld symbols that have one vertical
line in their make-up. The rule requires that the vertical line must always
be on the left side in the weld symbol. The weld symbols shown in Figure
5 are incorrect because the vertical line is to the right of weld symboil.

2. Types of Joints and Welds

2.1 Types of Joints


In order to know how to apply and read welding symbols, it is necessary to
understand the meaning of joints, their types, and the types of applicable
welds.

AWS A3.0, Welding Terms and Definitions, describe a joint as the “junction
of members or the edges of members that are to be or have been joined”.

The reference to “junction of members” describes the area of common


contact between the tựo members as shown in Figure 11.

The assembly on the right of Figure 11 consists of three plates. How many
Joints are there?

Select your answer from the following, and then read below for the
correct answer:

One joint only


$2.Y.$+vs.es.

Two joints
Three joints
Four joints

WSA Study Guide JS2.2 4$ cwbinstitute
Intermediate Welding Symbols

Answers and comments on the answers

One Joint only - No. You are thinking of one assembly that after welding
will form one weldment. A weldment is an assembly whose component
parts are joined by welding.

Two Joints - This answer is correct. The three plates form two joints. The
actual joint is the faying area in contact with the centre plate.

Three Joints - No. You are considering three plates, which form part of the
assembly.

Four Joints - No. Perhaps you are considering each side of the joint. For
example, there are four sides where fillet welds could be made. However,
these are only two areas of faying surfaces.

There are five basic joints, although many variations of these result from
the manner of preparation and assembly. These five joints shown in Figure
12, are termed butt joint, corner joint, tee joint, lap joint and edge joint.

2.2.2 Fillet Weld


A fillet weld is a weld of approximately triangular cross-section Jjoining two
surfaces approximately at right angles to each other in a lap joint, tee joint
or corner joint as shown in Figure 16.

G16 Filllet welds

2.2.3 Plug and Slot Welds


A plug weld is a weld made in a circular hole in one member of a joint
fusing that member to another member. A slot weld is similar to a plug
weld except that the hole is elongated (see Figure 17).

In preparation for plug and slot welds, holes or slots are made in the
upper plate. On thinner material such welds can be made without holes or
slots and are called arc spot and arc seam welds, in which the upper sheet
Ñ is melted and fused to the lower sheet.

2.2.4 Surfacing Weld


All welds are composed of one or more weld beads, a bead being a single
run or pass of weld metal. A weld bead or beads may be applied to a
surface, as opposed to making a joint, to obtain the desired properties or
dimensions. Sụch a weld is called a “surfacing weld”, as shown in Figure
18.

3. Arrow Side/Other Side


In working with symbols, the first step is to locate the joint i.e. the area of
common contact between the members to be welded and identified by
the arrow.

The second step is to look for the information connected to the reference
line.

The arrow side of the joint is the side to which the arrow points. The
Opposite side is the other side of the joint.

Figure 19 illustrates the arrow side and the other side of a fillet weld.

4. Fillet Welds
The fillet weld size “S” must be shown for each weld symbol on the same
s side of the reference line as the weld symbol.

The size must appear to the left of each weld symbol. When the fillet
welds are on both sides of the joint, their sizes must be specified whether
the dimensions are identical or different.

4.3 Intermittent Fillet Welds


Intermittent fillet welds can be divided into three types, with the last two
being applicable to double fillet welds:

1. basicintermittent filiet welds, applicable to a single line of fillet welds;


2. chain intermittent fillet welds,
3. staggered intermittent fillet welds

la fillet weld extends for the full length of the Joint, there is no need to
specify length on the welding symbol. The lengths and position of the fillet
welds are placed next to the fillet weld symbol — the size to the left and
length or pitch to the right.

The pitch of intermittent fillet welds is defined as the distance between


the centres of adjacent weld segments on one side of the joint and is
specified to the right of the length dimension on the symbol

lf the arrow side and the other side of the joint are to be welded using
intermittent filiet welds, a pitch must be designated for each side or, in
other words, for each line of weld.

The symbols and dimensions for intermittent fillet welds are shown in
Figure 26.

The basic intermittent fillet weld has one line ofwelds.

4.3.2 Chain Intermittent Fillet Welds


The distinguishing characteristic of chaïn intermittent fillet welds is the
alignment of weld segments, which must be opposite one another across
the joint as shown in Figure 27.

4.3.3 Staggered Intermittent Fillet


Welds
Staggered intermittent ñillet welds also involves double-fillet welds in two
lines; however, the centres of weld segments on each side of the joint are
offset in relation to one another.

This is reflected in the fillet weld symbols, which are offset on opposite
sides of the reference line. The dimensions of staggered intermittent fillet
welds are specified on both sides of the reference line.

There is no significance attached to the onset of staggering, as to whether


¡t should commence on the arrow side or on the other side of the joint.
Figure 28 shows a typical joint to illustrate this concept.

Objectives
ATter completing this lesson you should be able to:

$ Describe the symbols used for complete and partial joint penetration
groove welds

$ Explain the use of combined symbols and multiple reference lines

$ Describe the symbols used for plug welds, slot welds and stud welds

$ Identify the welding symbols referenced in ISO 2553-1

6. Groove Welds
The elements that define groove welds are:

$ The depth of preparation, also described as the depth of chamfer, on


each side of the joint (arrow side and other side) and designated by
the capital letter “S”,

$ Thebevel or groove angle, the angle at which member preparation is


made.

$ Theroot opening, the space required for proper fitting of the two
members in the joint, with the primary objective to provide adequate
access for welding and proper fusion in the root area.

In the example shown in Figure 29, the depth of preparation is 9 mm,


the groove angle is 60 degrees and the root opening is 3 mm. Note the
location of dimensions in relation to the symbol.

6.1 Back-Gouging
When back-gouging is required, the welding symbol must include a
reference to back-gouging in the tail as shown in Figure 31. For non-
symmetrical double groove welds, the symbol needs to show the required
groove depth for each side of the joint and include the required groove
angles. For both single groove welds and symmetrical double groove
welds without root faces, the welding symbol does not need to show the
depth of groove dimensions. Reference to notes can be included in the tail
of the welding symbol.

6.2 Partial Joint Penetration Groove


Welds
When used, the depth of preparation “S” and groove weld size “(E)” are
placed to the left of the weld symbol as shown in Figure 32.

The groove weld size (E) may have different terms associated with ït. It
used to be called the throat of a groove weld. CSA Standard W59, refers to
it as “effective throat” or “Joint penetration”. The AWS A3.0 defines it as
“loint penetration”.

In a practical sense, achievement of the size of (E) depends largely on the


root geometry of the joint, the welding process, and the parameters of the
welding procedure.

The application of the depth of groove and groove weld size is illustrated
in Figures 33 and 34.

The size (E) is measured from the top of the plate to the furthest point
where the weld penetrates the joint. The value of (E) may be less than “S?

to single- and double-groove welds; however, they are typically more
prevalent ïn cases of partial penetration than complete penetration
grooves. Examples of double-sided welds and the corresponding welding
symbols are shown in Figure 35.

The joints may have partial penetration or complete penetration,


depending on thickness and penetration characteristics of the welding
process used.

Another area of potential application of this type of symbol on shop


drawings is for grooves welded mainly from one side and requiring only
a one-pass weld from the other side. This latter weld may be a square-
groove weld, if the fusion faces in the root are the remaining parts of the
original square-cut preparation.

6.3 Combined Welding Symbols


Depending on their complexity, joints may require one or more than one
type of weld symbol. For joints requiring more than one type of weld, a
symbol must be used to specify each weld. This rule is illustrated by the

6.5 Multiple Reference Lines


The objective of multiple reference lines is to provide the welding symbol
with the capability to specify the sequence of welding operations, as well
as to provide additional information related to the examination of welds
Or other operations.

The rule that applies to sequencing states that the first operation is
to shown on the reference line closest to the arrow. All subsequent
operations follow the same sequencing order as the reference lines
move away from the arrow. In the example shown in Figure 39, the first
operation is the welding of the single-bevel groove weld on the arrow
side, then the filiet weld on the other side and lastly the fillet weld
reinforcement on the arrow side.

6.6 Flare Groove Welds


With the increasing use of hollow structural sections and circular or
tubular profiles in welded fabrication, the application of flare bevel groove
welds seem to follow this trend. There are two basic types of flare-
grooves: flare-bevel and flare-V-groove welds. The weld symbols for these
grooves also reflect the shape of the joint which contains them (see Figure
40). There is no preparation involved for these grooves, as their curved
configuration forms a joint in a natural way.

8. Other Welds

8.1 Plug Welds


Plug welds are other types of welds produced by an electric arc welding
process. Although not used as extensively as groove and fillet welds, they
have found their own area of application in welded construction.

A plug weld can be defined as “a weld made in a circular hole in one


member of a joint fusing that member to another member.” Slot welds are
made ïn an elongated hole and the hole may be open at one end. Fillet-
welded holes do not conform to these definitions.

Plug and slot welds share the same shape of weld symbol, which is
represented by a rectangle, irrespective of whether the fusion faces inside
the hole or slot are perpendicular or sloping.

Arrow-side holes to be plug welded are specified by placing the plug weld
symbol below the reference line and other-side holes are specified by
placing the plug weld symbol above the reference line.

Dimensions that must be identified are the:


$ diameter at the root
$ pitch
$ angle of countersink and
$ depth of ñiIl

The location of the elements of a plug weld welding symbol are shown in
Figure 41.

riG.50i Location oƒ the elements oƒ ø stud welding symbol

Stud welding can be defined as “Joining a metal stud or similar part to a


workpiece.” Welding may be accomplished by arc, resistance, fricion or
other process with or without external gas shielding. Arc stud welding is
the more widely used process.

The stud symbol is always placed below the reference line and the arrow
of the welding symbol points to the surface to which the stud is to be
welded.

The only dimensions discussed in the stud welding symbol are the size,
spacing and the number of studs, all placed on the same side of the
reference line as the stud weld symbol.

The required diameter (size) of the stud is specified to the left of the weld
symbol.

The pitch (centre-to-centre) distance or spacing of stud welds in a straight


line is specified to the right of the weld symbol. The spacing of welds in
any configuration other than a straight line must be dimensioned on the
drawing.

The number of required stud welds is placed in parentheses below the


stud weld symbol.

An example of the desired weld and the corresponding stud welding


symbol is shown in Figure 51. The stud weld size or diameter is 12 mm,
the pitch is 80 mm and seven studs are required.

8.4 Surfacing
As its name implies, a surfacing weld is applied to a surface. A building up
of surfaces may be required for a various reasons, and the most common
are:

$ correction of dimensions
$ providing transition between different metals and
$ providing corrosion- or wear-resistance

The characteristics of a surfacing weld are shown in Figure 52.

The area on which the surfacing weld is to be deposited is simply


identified by the arrow pointing to it with the surfacing symbol always
placed below the reference line. The required thickness is specified to the
left of the weld symboil.

Brazing can be defined as “a process for joining solid metals in close
proximity by heating them to the brazing temperature in the presence of
the fillier metal.”

-
only the reference line, the arrow and the identification of the brazing
process in the tail of the welding symbol as shown in Figure 53.

10. Introduction to ISO 2553-1


The intent of this introduction to ISO 2553-1 is to present a basic outline
of the ISO welding symbols, their features and applications.

ISO 2553, Welding and allied processes — Symbolic representation on


drawings — Part 1: Welding, identifies two systems; system A and system
B. The two systems should not be mixed.

Both systems have the same intent and that is to enable communication
between the designer and others in the production chain (drafting,
welding engineering, supervising, hands-on welding, examination
and inspection personnel). However, the pathways to achieving that
communication goal differ ¡in some concepts and details.

In system A, the reference line consists of two parallel lines: a continuous


straight line and a dashed, identified line as shown in Figure 54 (a). The
dashed line may be drawn above or below but parallel to the continuous
line. The dashed line represents the other side of the joint to where the
arrowhead is pointing.

In sựystem B as shown in Figure 54 (b), the reference line is a continuous


straight line.

The throat thickness, ơ, is measured as the height of the largest isosceles


triangle that can be inscribed in the section of the finalized weld measured
from the joint root.

For fillet welds with unequal leg lengths the symbols Z, and Z, are used
where:

Z, = leg length measured on the contiguous member of the joint

Z, = leg length measured on the non-contiguous (cross) member of


the joint

For fillet welds made on both sides of a joint, the dimensions of both
welds shall be specified even if they are identical.
