This document summarizes information about welded joints. It discusses that welding is a process of joining similar metals by heating with or without applying pressure and filler material. Some advantages of welded joints are that they provide maximum efficiency, can join circular members, and take less time than riveted joints. Types of welded joints discussed include lap/fillet joints, butt joints, and their variations such as single transverse, double transverse, and parallel fillet joints. The document also provides a diagram explaining how to calculate the strength of a transverse fillet welded joint.
