Weld Calculation

Calculation of fillet welds according to NEN-EN 1993-1-8 + C2/NB

With this module you can verify and/or design fillet welds according to NEN-EN 1993-1-8.

Fillet Weld

Verification according to NEN-EN 1993-1-8 + C2 / national annex

  • Checking and designing
  • Forces and moments: Fx,Ed, Fy,Ed, Fz,Ed, Mx,Ed, My,Ed and Mz,Ed
  • No 'black-box' calculation but clear output with written out NEN-EN 1993 formulas

Input

Weld input

Field Description
Steel grade Steel grade of the weakest connected part
L Length of the welded part, or the length of the weld, in mm
b Thickness of the welded part in mm
a Applied throat thickness in mm
Design Design the throat thickness from the entered forces
Long joint Not applicable / Lapped joint / Fillet welds connecting transverse stiffeners in plate girders. This reduces the effective weld length according to art. 4.11

Forces and moments

Weld forces

Field Description
Fx,Ed, Fy,Ed, Fz,Ed Design forces in kN
Mx,Ed, My,Ed, Mz,Ed Design moments in kNm
