Where is the fillet weld's size shown?

• A. On the right of the fillet weld symbol.
• B. At the left of the fillet weld symbol.
• C. After the effective throat size.
• D. Inside the tail of the welding symbol.

Answer: (B)

In fillet weld symbols, the size of the weld—the leg length of the triangular fillet symbol—is shown to the left of the fillet weld symbol on the reference line. This placement makes the size the first thing you read as you follow the symbol from the arrow toward the joint. The right side of the symbol is typically used for the length and other details, while the tail holds notes or process information. So the correct placement is on the left side of the fillet weld symbol.
