The report details calculations to check the strength of a lifting lug based on its geometry and expected load. It performs checks on dimensional requirements, design load, strength limits related to tension, shear, bending and welding.

The report checks the lug dimensions, determines the design load based on expected maximum and impact loads, and checks the dimensional requirements.

The report performs strength checks related to tensile rupture, shear rupture, bearing capacity, tensile and flexural yielding, and weldment strength.

a. The maximum fillet weld size that can be used notation per AISC Specification Section J2.2b Because the thickness material more than 6 mm, the maximum filled weld size : wfmax = = t - 2 mm 18 mm (Spec. J2.2b (b) )

While, from AISC Specification Table J2.4, the minimum size of fillet weld, based on a material thickness of 20 mm is 8 mm. (Spec. Table J2.4)

b. Length of Weld Required # The nominal weld strength per mm used = Rn = = = FnwAwe 0.6FEXXAwe 14 mm weld.
