Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
The depth of filling for a plug or slot weld is the distance from the root of the joint to the surface of the weld metal. This dimension is shown within the symbol for the weld, typically as a number followed by the abbreviation "DF" (depth of filling) and the unit of measurement in inches or millimeters. It is placed within the welding symbol to indicate the required depth of filling for the weld.
