Hi
I have recently come across a design in which a flat head is connected to a shell by fillet weld like the figure e of UG 34.
Both the shell and head are seamless.
For design thickness calculation what should be design efficiency according to UW12?
Should I use E=1 for both or should I use E=0.55?
