Lecture 12: Design of Plug and Slot Weld

Arrange the following welds in ascending order as per their usage in structural engineering applications a) fillet weld, groove weld, slot and plug weld b)

For example, a square groove weld has a square cross section, a spot weld is the shape of a spot, and the cross section of a slot weld is the shape of a slot

plug or slot weld Plug and slot welds are usually used for lap joints They are not suitable for the transfer of high forces and are especially not suitable for dynamically
