The essential consideration for those who practice the art of electric welding is the character of the materials to be joined. As a matter of fact, this principle has been the basis of all successful engineering achievement and a lack of it the cause for many vital failures. The wide range of processes combined with ingenious designs permits the broad statement of probability that all the metals and their alloys may in varying degrees be held together by electric methods. This provides a varied and interesting field for the engineer although, like untilled ground, there will be found many obstacles in the way of cultivation. The success of the harvest will be in direct proportion to the thought bestowed upon the actions of the metals when under the treatment required for their jointure.
It is not proposed to consider here the welding of the soft metals such as gold, silver, copper, tin, zinc, aluminum, etc. It is sufficient to affirm that in small articles processes of electric welding have been devised that satisfactorily accomplish such joints as are needed for special industries. The processes employed are fully described in many published articles. As metal is added to the objects joined the method is referred to as soldering rather than welding.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the then-emerging field of electric welding, particularly its application in joining heavy steel components. At the time of its writing, electric welding was primarily used for repairs, and the author aims to demonstrate its potential in new construction projects, specifically in shipbuilding. The text explores the hesitancy surrounding the adoption of electric welding and seeks to dispel concerns about its reliability and strength compared to traditional riveting methods. It provides a comprehensive analysis of the materials involved, focusing on the properties and weldability of steel. The author emphasizes the importance of understanding the chemical composition and physical characteristics of steel to ensure successful welding outcomes. Furthermore, the book delves into the various electric welding systems, including resistance and arc welding techniques. It examines the principles, advantages, and limitations of each method, providing insights into their practical applications. The author discusses the use of bare and covered electrodes in metallic arc welding, highlighting the ongoing debate and experimentation surrounding their effectiveness. By offering a detailed exploration of electric welding technology and its potential in heavy steel construction, this book serves as a valuable resource for engineers, shipbuilders, and anyone interested in the advancements of this transformative industrial process. The insights shared pave the way for a deeper understanding of electric welding and its ability to revolutionize construction practices. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
