AISC Fillet Weld

The document provides input parameters for calculating the strength of a fillet weld, including weld strength, plate thickness, and steel properties. It then shows the output of the calculations for Allowable Stress Design (ASD) and Load and Resistance Factor Design (LRFD), noting the calculated weld and base metal strengths. Finally, it includes a chart with allowable weld sizes for different combinations of weld and base metal thicknesses.
