Where on a welding symbol will you find the length of an intermittent fillet weld?

• A. At the left of the weld symbol
• B. In the tail of the reference line
• C. After the pitch measurement
• D. On the right side of the weld symbol

Answer: (D)

The length of an intermittent fillet weld is shown on the right side of the weld symbol. This placement directly ties the dimension to the actual weld bead length, telling the welder how long each individual bead should be. The spacing between beads (the pitch) and other details are handled separately, but the bead length itself is read from the right-hand side of the symbol.
