TKY Joint Welding Length Guide

Looking up table 1, radius of riser for 30° is 2.12 Circum of Riser = Diameter brace x Radius of Riser = (32”x16) x 2.12 = 2,112 mm = 2.112 m Weld Volume (for 16mm thickness) = (0.5x16^2 + 4.8x16 + 10.24)/18 = 16.8 mm Welding Length TKY = Circum x Weld Volume = 2.112 x 16.8 = 35.4 m

To calculate welding length on TKY joint please follow below instruction:

a. Determine a radius of Riser

Formula:

= D/d

= (Refer table 1 to determine radius of riser as per each degrees)

b. Determine circum of Riser

Formula:

= Diameter brace x Radius of Riser

= .m

c. Determine Volume of welding (mm)

To determine welding volume we must follow with below mandatory items:

o Thickness of Riser

o Welding Design / Joint Design

o Thickness of weld length

Formula of Weld Volume:

= (0.5t + 4.8 t + 10.24)/18

Which:

t= Thickness or Fillet Size (mm)

d. Determine of Welding Length (m)

Formula:

= Circum of Riser x Weld Volume

Case Study:

1. Please calculate welding length on TKY Joint Jacket brace below:


Diameter of Leg = 64

Leg Length = 1400 mm

Diameter of Brace = 32 Thickness 25.4 mm

Degrees = 50

Joint Design = Single Bevel

Answer:

Radius of Riser

= D/d

= 64/32

=2

Looking the table to get value Radius of Riser

Radius of Riser

= 3.69 (from table above)

Circum of Riser

= Diameter brace x Radius of Riser

= (32x25.4) x 3.69

= 2,999.232 mm

= 2.999 m

Weld Volume

= (0.5t + 4.8t + 10.24)/18

= 24.6

So,

Welding Length TKY = Circum x Weld Volume


= 2.999 x 24.6

= 73.7754 m

2. Please calculate welding length on TKY Joint Jacket brace below:

Diameter of Leg = 42

Leg Length = 1400 mm

Diameter of Brace = 32 Thickness 16 mm

Degrees = 30

Joint Design = Single Bevel

Answer:

Radius of Riser

= D/d

= 42/32

= 1.3
