• Structural members are jointed by means of weld 
• Why using welded connections? 
o A more efficient use of materials o High speed of 
fabrication and erection o Better for fatigue loads,  impact loads, and vibrations    5      lOMoAR cPSD| 58759230 Welded connections    2. Types of welds o Butt welds       o Fillet welds    6      lOMoAR cPSD| 58759230 Welded connections  2. Types of welds  Types of  butt welds  Types of  fillet welds  7  Welded connections    2.
