EN13001 Weld Strength (2018)

EN13001 Weld Strength (2018) – a crane standard EN 13001-3-1+A2 Limits States and proof competence of steel structure.

EN13001 Weld Strength (2018)

To add EN 13001 Standard execute Standards - Main - EN 13001 - EN 13001 Weld Strength (2018) from the ribbon:

add EN13001 Standard

is the general resistance factor (EN13001-2).

If Weld Material Under-Matching is checked then equation 22 and ultimate tensile strength of the weld material will be used to calculate limit design weld stress fW,Rd.

EN13001_weld_equation_22

Otherwise, equation 21 and yield stress of the connected members will be used. (Section 5.2.5 and Table 8)

EN13001_weld_equation_21

Where:

EN13001_alphaW formula - is a factor given in Table 8 in dependence on the type of weld, the type of stress and the material

EN13001_Fy formula - is the minimum value of the yield strength of the connected members under consideration

EN13001_Fuw formula - is the ultimate tensile strength of the weld material (all weld metal)


add EN13001 weld strength table 8


If Using Effective Weld Length is checked then effective weld length will be used for calculations (substract twice the weld thickness from full weld length: lr = lw - 2 * w). Otherwise, full weld length will be used.
