136. Which type of weld is used to attach stiffeners to a plate?
Fillet welds are used to attach stiffeners to a plate because they join surfaces at approximately right angles, which is the geometry of a stiffener connected to plating. Butt welds join plates edge-to-edge, while 'plate weld' and 'seam weld' are imprecise terms. Fillet welds are economical, provide adequate strength, and do not require edge preparation, making them the standard method for stiffener attachment.
