RE: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Battery Pods Weld



James,
A double fillet weld is correct .  The battery pods are only being "attached" to the outside and are not a critical pressure boundary weld.
Just make sure you have a continuous weld all the way around to avoid any water from infiltrating in between the the flat bar and the pressure hull.

Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Battery Pods Weld

Hi All,
 
Im going to attach my battery pods this afternoon.  The plans show 1/4 inch double fillet as opposed to a full penetration weld.  Is that right?  What have other people done with those fittings?
 
Its certainly a lot easier to do a double fillet but i just want to make sure its right.
 
Thanks
James
