U
Welds on the outer edge
The preparation for this is very simple.
V
However, it is no longer expedient for thicker
materials. In this case, it is better to prepare
a joint as shown below, in which the edge of
the plate is angled.
W
Fillet weld connections
A fillet weld is created if the workpieces are
perpendicular to each other. The weld should be
shaped like a triangle with sides of equal length
and a slight fillet.

Welds on an inner edge
The preparation for this weld joint is very
simply and is carried out for thicknesses of
5 mm. The dimension "d" needs to be re-
duced to a minimum and should always be
less than 2 mm.
X
However, it is no longer expedient for thicker
materials. In this case, it is better to prepare
a joint as shown in Figure W, in which the
edge of the plate is angled.
Y
Overlap welds
The most common preparation is that with
the straight weld edges. The weld can be
released using a standard angle weld seam.
Both workpieces must be brought as close to
each other as possible.
