Oleg Maloletnikov BASIC JOINTS
The basic joints used for weldment fabrications are: butt, corner, tee, lap, and edge, Figure 11.1. Combinations of these joints are also used.
For each type of joint, a number of different welds may be applied, Figure 11.1. The selection of the weld is based on a number of factors, including the thickness and kind of material to be welded, the

strength required, the kind of finish desired, and the location of the weld in terms of accessibility for making the weld. As shown in the figure, the weld symbol applied to each of the joints may have an arrow side, other side, or both sides significance. Note that metal shapes other than plate may be used in fabricating these joints, Figure 11.4.
The members of the joints to be welded may be formed to a particular shape in preparation for the weld, Figure 11.2(a) through Figure 11.2(d). This is done to increase the strength of the joint and to improve the appearance of the weldment.
