The welded tubular joints can be used in several industrial fields including, metallic bridges, telecommunication tripods, oil platforms and pipelines. These structures can be damaged by concentrated stresses located in the toe weld vicinity. Semi-parametric formulas, currently available in the literature, can be used to predict the value of the stress concentration factor without given the hot spot location. In this work, a Finite Elements modeling was carried out for a T-joint, in order to have the concentrated stress value around the weld toe. This work was investigated for a series of combined loads.
Key words: Tubular Joint / Finite Elements Method / Stress Concentrated Factor / Hot Spot / Linear extrapolation method.
