Weld Connection

The document summarizes calculations to check the shear strength of a weld connection according to AISC LRFD equations. It determines: 1) The design shear strength of a 6mm weld is 161.21kN for one side welded and 322.42kN for two sides welded. 2) The design shear strength of the base metal is 88.61kN. 3) The minimum required weld length is 24mm and the calculated required weld length is 15.63mm to support the factored load of 14.4kN, which is less than the maximum capacity.
