Say I have 10 in. long joint that I need to weld and I call for a 2 in. long fillet welds at every 5 in.
How would the welder make this weld?
Would they lay down a 2 in. bead at each end of the joint? If this is the case how much weld metal (in terms of length) would be placed in the joint?
or..
would they lay down a 2 in. bead at one end of the joint then work their way down at 5 in. on-center? Would this result in the bottom of the joint not being welded? If this is the this case how much weld metal (lengthwise) would be laid down in the joint?
I'm asking how much weld metal will be put down becuase I'm trying to visualize what the joint would look like after it's welded.
Thanks.
