In a fillet weld, the leg and size are the same for the convex weld.
In most applications each leg should not exceed the thickness of the adjacent material. It is considered a waste of material. Also the joint becomes too rigid.
It depends on the seam you are welding

tell me full penetration joint process
To measure penetration of a weld, one must cut and etch the weld, preferably on a test coupon. Etching is just using an acid that will discolor the weld metal so that there is a visible difference between the weld metal and the base metal. Once the acid has taken affect, one can measure the weld using calipers or a similar measuring device.
It is the only type of weld you can make to seal this type of joint. There are flange ends that can be welded onto pipe with a butt weld, but sockets and slip-ons must be fillet welded.
Pitch is center to center spacing of an intermittent weld.

The 'face' of the weld may be slightly convex, flat, or slightly concave.

A fillet weld in any single continuous weldmay underrun the nominal fillet weld size specified by2 mm [1/16 in] without correction, provided that theundersize portion of the weld does not exceed 10% of thelength of the weld. On the web-to-flange welds on girders,underrun shall be prohibited at the ends for a lengthequal to twice the width of the flange.

The distances from the root to the edges of the legs (toes) and the height of the crown are basic measurements. If the face is concave it might be considered.
