Weld Size Calculator
Calculate fillet weld throat thickness and approximate capacity from leg length.
Estimate the effective throat thickness of a fillet weld and its approximate design capacity per unit length.
Inputs
Results
Effective throat5.66 mm
Capacity per mm (approx)1.663 kN/mm
Total capacity (approx)166.3 kN
Important Notes
- Approximate values for guidance only, based on a simplified throat = 0.707 × leg.
- Design welds to AS/NZS 1554 with capacity factors and a qualified engineer.
