Weld Joint - Butt Joint Calculation - Normal and Shear Load
The following equations will determine the resultant reduced stress applied to a butt welded joint under going shear and normal loading.
Resultant Reduced Stress Formula
σR τ
Where:
= Resultant Reduced Stress [MPa,psi]
σ1 , σ2
= Normal stress [MPa,psi]
= Shear stress [MPa,psi]
Reference Stress Formula

σS |
= Reference Stress [MPa, psi] |
σ1, σ2, σ3 | = Normal Stress [MPa,psi] |
τ |
= Shear stress [MPa,psi] |
