Fillet weld full penetration for plate in vibration fatigue? Assuming that your design is new, I would suggest redesign using full penetration groove welds with reinforcing fillets As metengr has so rightly stated, fillet weld designs are notoriously poor in fatigue service and can be as low as 15% of the base metal's fatigue strength due to geometry and weld residual stress

Is a fillet weld a CJP or PJP? | Eng-Tips A fillet weld is neither a partial joint penetration or a complete penetration joint CJP and PJP welds are groove welds, as shown in their SWPS details, where the welds penetrate a defined thickness of the material
