Welding Drawing Guide. This engineering drawing present weld type symbols and fillet weld symbols. Detailed part drawings may contain many welding symbols.
The arrow line is connected to a leader line which is intersected with a horizontal reference line. When welds are specified on an engineering drawing they are often done by the book following ANSIAWS A24-79 Figure 7. Fillet welding refers to the process of joining two pieces of metal together whether they be perpendicular or at.
Although technically correct following this method may generate many extra hours in part design.
Weld symbols on drawings should be understood through the design and manufacturing pipeline including shop floor personnel. Weld symbols are a very useful way of communicating welding requirements from the design office to the shop floor. Defective tack welds shall be removed by grinding. What is drawn.
