what are metals composed of two or more elements?
alloys
what is elasticity?
deformation under a load that is not permanent
what is plastic deformation?
permanent deformation after a load is removed
what is stress?
the force applied to a material
what is strain?
the change in length in a material under stress
Which are the two main subdivision of Metals?
ferrous and nonferrous
- true or false?
Turning, welding and bending are considered material removing processes.
false
- true or false?
Forging is considered a deformation process.
true
- true or false?
Particulate processing requires the mixing of metal or ceramic powders with binders, then the powders are loaded in a die with the shape of the desired part to be pressed and finally the part is sintered.
true
what are the main three (3) Chrystal Structures that metal can form into?
- Body-Centered Cubic (BCC)
- Face –Centered Cubic (FCC)
- Hexagonal Closed packed (HCP)
what is the first step in making a risk assessment?
determine the hazard
all but which of the following are protective clothing required for Casting?
cotton coveralls leaving no exposed skin
which of the following is NOT a type of “point of operation” GUARD?
pressure-sensing barrier
what clothing should be NOT be worn when welding?
cotton (natural fiber) gloves
when electric arc welding, what eye protection should you wear?
dark glass with a protective lens
which is not a general hazard associated with welding?
excessive noise
when welding, to minimize the effects of noxious fumes, you should…
assure there is adequate ventilation around the weld sight
what is not a good reason to train employees?
minimizes employee fear of safety hazards
when performing electric arc welding, what is the BEST approach to minimizing the risk of electrocution?
avoid making yourself the circuits easiest path to ground
in a shear press, how are treadles (foot pedals) “guarded”?
With counter weights or springs
what is tensile stress?
material being stretched
what is compressive stress?
material being squeezed
what is shear stress?
material being forced to slide
what is barreling?
increase in area at the middle of the specimen as a consequence of friction with the supporting surfaces
what is hardness?
a material’s resistance to permanent indentation
what is hot hardness?
the ability of a material to retain hardness at elevated temperature (ceramics, tooling materials)
what is viscosity?
resistance to fluid flow
what is fluidity?
ease with which a fluid flows
what is a stamping press?
typical machine tool used
– punch and die (tooling)
what is springback?
when the pressure is removed at the end of the deformation operation, elastic energy remains in the bent part, causing partial recovery of the material towards its initial shape
what is welding?
fabrication process that joins materials using a coalescence process
what are some advantages to welding?
- permanent joint or bond
- weld can be stronger than the parent metal depending on filler
- material
- economical and faster
- not restricted to the factory
- can be mechanized or automated
what are some disadvantages to welding?
- does not allow for convenient
disassembly - labor cost – can be high – requires skills
- can be dangerous
- some quality defects are difficult to detect (internal defects)
- high temp can result in rapid oxidation (rust)
examples of fusion welding?
- Arc Welding
- SMAW (Stick welding)
- GMAW (MIG, MAG, CO2)
- FCAW (Flux-cored)
- SAW (Submerged)
- GTAW (TIG) PAW or PAC (Plasma)
- Resistance Welding
- Oxyfuel Gas Welding
- Electron Beam Welding
- Laser Beam Welding
examples of solid state welding?

- Groove
- Square
- Single bevel
- “V” groove
- “U” groove
- “J” groove

what are the general properties of metals (Physical and Mechanical)?
- high stiffness and strength
- toughness (ability to absorb energy)
- good electrical conductivity (magnetic)
- good thermal conductivity
what are phase diagrams?
graphical means of representing the phases of a metal alloy system as a function of composition and temperature
what is the L phase proportion?
CS / (CS + CL)
what is the S phase proportion?
CL / (CS + CL)
what is the chill zone in casting?
region where the temperature is the coldest (edges in contact with the mold)
what are columnar grains?
elongated grains that grow as the material cools down
what are equiaxed grains?
internal grains that form from additional nucleation at the thickest regions of the cast material
what is diffusion?
a chemical redistribution of atoms in a solid
diffusion can occur either by ________ or by ________.
- heat treatment
- mechanical deformation
what are the main two factors involved during heat treatment?
- time
- temperature (furnace and atmosphere must also be
considered as well as the quenching media)
what is deformation?
hot and cold forming through shaping processes
when setting the shielding gas regulator for the GMAW welding process, which units are used to measure the gas flow?
