PDF page 194 · AISC 360-22
| Welding Process | Flare-Bevel-Groove[a] | Flare-V-Groove |
|---|---|---|
| GMAW and FCAW-G | 5/8R | 3/4R |
| SMAW and FCAW-S | 5/16R | 5/8R |
| SAW | 5/16R | 1/2R |
R = radius of joint surface (is permitted to be assumed equal to 2t for HSS, where t is the design wall thick- ness), in. (mm)
[a]For flare-bevel-groove with R < 3/8 in. (10 mm), use only reinforcing fillet weld on filled flush joint.
