A practical reference to pipe-welding procedures
Hoobasarl Rampaul’s second edition organizes pipe welding around both hands-on technique and the principles behind it. Coverage includes joint-manipulation procedures, heat input and distribution, distortion, defects, safety, welding metallurgy, and qualification of procedures and welders. Expanded topics include root beads, pulse current, gas tungsten arc welding, electrodes for shielded metal arc welding, low-temperature steel, downhill welding, heavywall and large-diameter pipe, and weld repair. The range makes the book a technical reference connecting specific welding conditions and methods with the broader considerations that shape pipe-welding work.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
