Welding

What is the single best thing you can do to protect yourself from welding fumes?

• Wear a welding visor or helmet

• Put up a welding screen or shield

• Use local or exhaust ventilation

• Store welding materials and equipment properly

Where should welding equipment and supplies be stored when not in use?

• Below ground level, inside buildings

• Below ground level, outside buildings

• Not below ground level, inside buildings

• Not below ground level, outside buildings

In arc cutting, what melts away the metal?

• A gas flame

• Intense heat of electric arc

• An oxygen jet

The grain structure of the weld appears to depend mainly on three factors except for

• composition (solute content)

• shape of the electrode

• solidification parameter

• shape of the weld pool

List ONE (1) possible solidification modes (morphologies) that are possible in welding aside from planar growth and cellular growth

At higher speeds, the weld pool becomes kite-shaped and grains form a _________________ pattern.

The weld pool becomes teardrop shaped at high welding speeds and _____________at low welding speeds.

In heat-affected zone (HAZ), metal has experienced temperatures ____________melting point, but high enough to cause microstructural changes in the solid metal.
