# Fillet Depth \[STG]

By taking girder deflection into account based on the concrete deck casting (for both pouring and hardening stages), the fillet depth may need to be recalculated. To achieve this, this object can be utilized. However, for the deflections based on DC1 (non-composite dead load case) and DC2 (composite dead load case) to be calculated successfully, the analysis and design must be completed. ![image-20241128-072756.png](https://openbrim.atlassian.net/wiki/download/attachments/2127167531/image-20241128-072756.png?api=v2)

## General

**DC1**: Specify the non-composite dead load case using this parameter.

**DC2**: Specify the composite dead load case using this parameter.

**Girder**: Specify the related girder.

## What the report shows

The fillet is read from the girder **as modelled**: the concrete from the deck bottom to the top of the top flange (Haunch Thickness minus the top flange thickness) at every station. The table lists, per station, the profile grade line and its chord between supports, the DC1 and DC2 deflections, the fillet as modelled, the fillet after those deflections (a downward deflection deepens it), the top-flange splice plate thickness wherever the station falls on a field splice's outer top plate, and the clear fillet above the plate.

There is no minimum-fillet input on this object any more: set the girder's Haunch Thickness to the fillet you want. (Compute Linear Haunch, which sizes the haunch from a minimum and maximum fillet depth, is available on steel I girders only.)

The report's final section plots, for each girder, the top of deck and the top of the top flange along the girder, and the fillet depth as modelled and after the DC1+DC2 deflection, with the least and greatest fillet marked.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.openbrim.org/templates/steel-tub-girder-bridge-workflow/reports-stg/fillet-depth-stg.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
