Design of Longitudinal Welds for CSA S16

Design of longitudinal fillet welds for CSA S16

The dialog box shows the configuration options for designing longitudinal fillet welds according to the Canadian standard CSA S16. The "Perform Design" option is activated. The calculation method selected for the design strength is the electrode classification using Xu = Fu; alternatively, the user can enter the electrode’s ultimate tensile strength, with a default value of Xu set to 62.366 ksi. For the hydrogen content in the electrode, the option “Hydrogen content not in accordance with requirement H8” is activated, while the variant indicating compliance with H8 or lower remains disabled.
