Intermittent weld segments
Formulas
e = (L − n · l) / (n − 1)
L = n · l + (n − 1) · e
Designation: n × l (e)
Calculation rules
- Gap length needs at least 2 welds; when n · l > L, the welds do not fit in the length.
- Weld Si occupies [(i − 1) · (l + e); (i − 1) · (l + e) + l] from the start.
- Clash: a weld overlaps the obstacle when it starts before the obstacle ends and ends after the obstacle starts (touching is not a clash).
- Rounding: Lengths – 1 decimal place.
