THE EFFECT OF FILLET WELD TERMINATION ON CYCLIC STRENGTH OF LONGITUDINAL FILLET WELDED JOINTS IN ALUMINIUM - AWRA CONTRACT NO 68

This report details the results of the fatigue testing of longitudinal load-carrying fillet weld joints in 5083 aluminium alloy. It has been found that the use of different weld terminations gives significantly different fatigue strengths. The various terminations are described and fatigue results at both low and high stress levels are reported. (Author/TRRL)
