When comparing two different weldment patterns it is useful to observe the resistance to bending or torsion

Question:

When comparing two different weldment patterns it is useful to observe the resistance to bending or torsion and the volume of weld metal deposited. Measure of effectiveness, defined as second moment of area divided by weld-metal volume, is useful. If a 3-in by 6-in section of a cantilever carries a static bending moment of 100 kip ・in in the weldment plane, with an allowable shear stress of 12 kpsi realized, compare horizontal weldments with vertical weldments. The horizontal beads are to be 3 in long and the vertical beads, 6 in long.
