Weld Section Modulus Formula
The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Weld Section Modulus.
WSM = s^2*L / 6
Variables:
- WSM is the Weld Section Modulus (mm^3)
- s is the plate thickness (mm)
- L is the length of weld (mm)
How to Calculate Weld Section Modulus?
The following steps outline how to calculate the Weld Section Modulus.
- First, determine the plate thickness (mm).
- Next, determine the length of weld (mm).
- Next, gather the formula from above = WSM = s^2*L / 6.
- Finally, calculate the Weld Section Modulus.
- After inserting the variables and calculating the result, check your answer with the calculator above.
Example Problem :
Use the following variables as an example problem to test your knowledge.
plate thickness (mm) = 3
length of weld (mm) = 10
WSM = s^2*L / 6 = ?
