Overview

You set the machine, run the bead, and it comes out wrong. Now what?

This handbook puts the starting setting, the joint, and the fix in the same few pages, so you can weld to a plan instead of guessing. It covers stick (SMAW), MIG (GMAW), flux-cored (FCAW), TIG (GTAW), and submerged arc (SAW) welding on today's inverter, pulsed, and synergic equipment. It is written for welders and operators, supervisors, inspectors, welding engineers, and instructors.

What you get:

  • Procedure tables for every process: current, voltage, wire feed speed, travel speed, gas, and number of passes by joint, thickness, and position. They are starting values to prove on your own trial welds, not a replacement for a qualified WPS.
  • Troubleshooting tables that run from symptom to cause to fix, plus a full catalog of weld discontinuities and how to find them.
  • Welding metallurgy you can act on: heat input, carbon equivalent, preheat and interpass temperature, postweld heat treatment, and hydrogen cracking.
  • WPS, PQR, and welder qualification explained together, and how they fit under AWS D1.1, ASME Section IX, API 1104, and ISO rules.
  • Joint design, weld symbols and drawing reading, distortion control, inspection and NDE, and cost estimating with the arithmetic worked out.
  • Materials: carbon and low-alloy steel, stainless, cast iron, aluminum, copper, nickel, and titanium, plus hardfacing, cladding, galvanized steel, and rebar.
  • Applications: pipe, structural, sheet metal, production, and repair welding.

The book has 35 chapters, more than 100 worked examples, and over 270 review questions with full answers. The appendices add a glossary, conversion and hardness tables, a weld symbols chart, a preheat and carbon equivalent quick reference, a codes and standards directory, and seven reproducible forms: a WPS, a PQR, a welder performance qualification record, a weld map, an inspection report, a hot work permit, and an electrode oven log.
