    Best practice for welding 2 plates full pen.

    hokie66, KootK's sketch explains his point wery well but does not show what will happen to the plate number 2 (option 2 with overhang) on my sketch. Combining what said by KootK and metengr, I sketched out my understanding and I would like to know whether it is correct or not.

    Best practice for welding 2 plates full pen.

    KootK, metengr, My understanding why option 2 is maybe better for full pen (I do not consider other types of weld as the full pen is what is required in my case): the stress in the weld area is spreading in the metall around. Bigger the area - less stress consentration in the joint. In option 2...

    EdStainless, thank you for your answer! Do you mean the weld will penetrate plate number 2 on full depth? In another words 10mm?

    Hello, I would like to know what is the best practice for welding two 10mm thickness plates full pen as shown on the image. Is it good idea to make a bottom plate say 10mm whider to avoid burning the edge? What is the depth of melted metall of second plate?

    Reason for Offshore Equipment Plinth

    Thank you BUGGAR Any equipment, I am asking just in general. So, as far as can see manly to: -pick up bolting of equipment frame; -to maintain certain level of the equipment; I also thought if packing is required for levelling and equipment installed without plinth in this case equipment own...

    Reason for Offshore Equipment Plinth

    Hi! When an equipment installed on offshore platform usually it is not bolted directly to the deck steelwork. First a plinth (a structural frame) bolts down to the deck and then the new equipment installs on the top of the plinth. As far as I know it is good practise to do so, but why I do...
