chapter 4

Question 1

Spliced Joint

Answer 1

A joint in which an additional workpiece spans the joint and is welded to each joint member

Question 2

Fillet welds info?

Answer 2

Triangle cros section

(lap, T or corner joint)

Intermittently, staggered, or chained

Edge preparation are usually not required for fillet welding

Question 3

Stud welds

Answer 3

Used mostly with Low carbon steel, stainless steel and aluminum

Most stud welds are round

Question 4

Back Weld

Answer 4

applied after the front side weld

weld made in the back side a joint

Question 5

Backing weld

Answer 5

is backing in the form of a weld

deposited before welding the front side

Question 6

Surface welds

Answer 6

Welds applied to surface

Buildup
Buttering
Cladding
Hard facing

Question 7

Surface welds - Buildup

Answer 7

Adding material to achieve a required dimension

Question 8

Surface welds - Buttering

Answer 8

Provide metallurgical compatible weld metal for subsequent completion of a weld

Question 9

Surface welds - Cladding

Answer 9

Improve corrosion or heat resistance

Question 10

Surface welds - Hard facing

Answer 10

Reduce wear

Question 11

Fusion

Answer 11

Melting together of the filler metal and the base metal

Question 12

Penetration

Answer 12

the distance that the weld metal has progressed into the joint

Question 13

Theoretical throat

Answer 13

The minimum amount if the weld that the designer counts on when originally specifying the weld size

The distance from the beginning of the joint root perpendicular to the hypotenuse

minimum distance minus convexity between the weld root and the face-off the fillet weld

Question 14

Actual Throat

Answer 14

the shortest distance between the weld root and the face of the fillet weld

Question 15

Stringer bead

Answer 15

Little or no side to side motion weld bead

Question 16

Weave bead

Answer 16

Electrode moved side to side along the groove

Question 17

Boxing

Answer 17

the continuation of a fillet weld around a corner of a member as an extension of the principal weld

Question 18

Backstep sequence

Answer 18

Each weld pass is deposited in the direction opposite that of the overall progression of welding

Question 19

The Block sequence

Answer 19

Combined longitudinal and cross section

some parts are welded before the intervening increments are welded

Each subsequent layer is slightly SHORTER then that of the previous one so that is created a gentle slope

Question 20

Cascade Sequence

Answer 20

Combined longitudinal and cross section in which weld passes are made in overlapping layers

Each subsequent layer is slightly LONGER then that of the previous one

Question 21

Finish Modes
C
G
H
M
R
U

Answer 21

Chipping
Grinding
Hammering
Machining 
Rolling 
Unspecified

Question 22

The melt through symbol is used only when?

Answer 22

complete root penetration plus visible root reinforcement is required

The hight requirement of root reinforcement is specified left of the melt through symbol on the reference line

Question 23

Backing

Answer 23

Material or device placed on the backside of the groove

The material and the dimensions are specified in the tail

An r is placed in side if it need to be removed later

Question 24

Consumable Insert

Answer 24

Used with GMAW
used as special composition filler
Symbol is a square on the opposite side of the reference line
The class type is in the tail of the symbol

Question 25

Plug weld symbol

Left, Right, inside, Above/below ?

Answer 25

LEFT SIDE ex. 3/8
uses diameter to measure size

RIGHT SIDE ex. 1.5
Pitch is used for plug welds
RIGHT of Pitch - Spacing

Located under/over the symbol
Angle of countersink & number of welds

located inside symbol
Depth of filling
if omitted = the hole is to be completely filled

Question 26

SLOT WELD symbol

Answer 26

Uses width to measure size
ex. 6.25

RIGHT - length dimension also used 
RIGHT of length -  Spacing
LEFT -  width 
ABOVE/BELOW - Angle of countersink 
INSIDE - Depth of filling 

The location and origination of slow welds must be show on the drawling

Question 27

Spot WELD symbol

Answer 27

RIGHT - Spacing or pitch
LEFT - weld size
TOP/BOTTOM - # of spot welds

Question 28

Seam WELD symbol

Answer 28

RIGHT - Spacing or length
LEFT - weld size (width) / or strength
TOP/BOTTOM - # of spot welds

Question 29

Groove Weld symbol

Answer 29

RIGHT - length dimension also used
of length - Spacing

LEFT - Depth of bevel (s)
- Weld size

ABOVE/BELOW - groove angle

INSIDE - Root Opening

Question 30

Flare Groove welds

Answer 30

S(E)
S = Depth of bevel (radius)
E = Flare grove weld size
