| It is strongly recommended that this dimension not be used.
This is the distance from the joint root to the largest triangle with two 45 degree angles that can be drawn in the weld. If the top plate is curved or tilted, the 45 degree angle will be determined by the lower plate. If the lower plate is curved, then the 45 degree angle will be determined by the upper plate.
The largest triangle is determined by using the triangle slide method. |
