plug and slot welds A butt joint, or butt weld, is a joint where two pieces of Plug weld; Slot weld; Bevel-groove weld; Fillet weld; J-groove weld; Melt

The seam weld uses a similar process as a spot weld but in an elongated fashion There is no preparation like a plug or slot weld, rather the weld projects

plug or slot weld symbol - Slot welds are typically used in lap joints where the fillet weld length is limited Plug Welds:

Arrow Side and Other Side Indication of Plug and Slot Welds Holes or slots in the arrow side member of a joint for plug or slot welding must be indicated
