A drawing depicts a section view of a flange to pipe connection. The weld symbol has an intermittent fillet weld symbol below the reference line, with '10x100(200)' indicated to the right. What does this notation signify?

Question: A drawing depicts a section view of a flange to pipe connection. The weld symbol has an intermittent fillet weld symbol below the reference line, with '10x100(200)' indicated to the right. What does this notation signify?

Answer options: ✅ A 10 mm (0.4 in.) leg size fillet weld, 100 mm (4 in.) in length, with 200 mm (8 in.) pitch.

• Two fillet welds, each 10 mm (0.4 in.) long, with a 200 mm (8 in.) spacing between them.
• A 10 mm (0.4 in.) fillet weld, 100 mm (4 in.) long, repeated every 200 mm (8 in.) along the joint.
• A 10 mm (0.4 in.) leg size fillet weld, 200 mm (8 in.) in length, with 100 mm (4 in.) pitch.

Correct answer: A 10 mm (0.4 in.) leg size fillet weld, 100 mm (4 in.) in length, with 200 mm (8 in.) pitch.

Explanation: For intermittent fillet welds, the number to the left of the 'x' indicates the leg size (10 mm), the number to the right of the 'x' is the length of each weld segment (100 mm), and the number in parentheses is the pitch (centre-to-centre spacing) of the weld segments (200 mm). This describes individual 100 mm long welds spaced 200 mm apart, with a 10 mm leg size.
