The effective uses of welding joints have its greater significance on fabrication process. The study was conducted using the Finite element method. The major study was done on welding joints with flush nugget shapes by using different materials with lap joint and butt joint. A stress intensity factor was analyzed and static structural analysis is performed for validation. In the present analysis, ANSYS is used. In order to verify the present ABAQUS model, the stress intensity factor with their modes i.e. opening mode (K1), shearing mode (K2), tearing mode (K3) are compared with the available base paper Danijela Zivojinovicb [1] results presented in the literature. The simulations of different profile welding joints with structural steel and 2219 T-8 aluminum alloy materials with flush nugget shapes are proposed. The results show that increasing load from 950N to 1000N and material like Structural steel with lap joint in flush shaped nugget of welding decreases the stress intensity factor with increase in load.
