Description: |
Sixth Edition
Larry F. Jeffus |
This newly updated sixth edition
of Welding: Principles and Applications features tight shots
of actual welds to speed beginners to an understanding of a variety
of different welding processes used today.
Moving quickly from basic
concepts to the study of today's most complex welding technologies,
each section begins by introducing readers to the materials,
equipment, setup procedures, and critical safety information they
need to know to successfully execute a specific process.
Remaining chapters in the section
zero in on individual welding tasks and must-know techniques.
Comprehensive coverage spans from specific welding processes to
discussion of related topics, including welding metallurgy, metal
fabrication, weld testing and inspection, joint design, and job
costing.
Objectives, key terms, review
questions, lab experiments, and practice exercises in every chapter
are also included to focus attention on information and skills
required for success as a professional welder.
Features:
- updated to include the most current welding
technologies in use today, so readers can feel confident that they
are well-prepared for entering today's
welding field
- updated information on Flux Cored Steel
Electrode Identification and Metal Cored Steel Electrode
Identification
- "success stories" profile real-life
welders, capturing attention and motivating readers who may be
considering welding as a career choice
- real-world features at the end of each
chapter showcase real-life applications of the principles
presented, maintaining reader interest while bridging the gap
between theory and practice
