V-welds are shown below with the most commonly used round welding rod and a
welding rod with a triangular cross-section for improved heat transfer and
flow. The double V-weld in figure C offers a stronger connection, as stress
concentrations at the bottom of the groove are avoided. The solution shown in
figure D has the advantage that no chamfering is required.
