1. Butt Joint:
In a Butt-welded joint, the parts lie in a similar plane and are joined at their edges.
2. Corner Joint:
In the corner welded joint, the parts in a corner joint make a right angle and are joined at the center of the angle.
3. Lap Joint:
In this type of joint, one member overlaps another member. Two parts of the metal sheet can be fully or partially overlapped.
4. Tee Joint:
In this type of welded joint, one joint is the right angle to the other joint in the approximate shape of the letter “T”.
5. Edge Joint:
The parts in the edge joint are parallel with at least one of their edges in common and the joint is made at the common edge.
