In modern day construction welding is the primary methods to join various members of any structure. Welds are required to meet various types of load in tension, compression, torsion, and perform in static or cyclic loading conditions. The weld has to be at least as strong as the parent metal to meet the demands of various stress working on the structure. It should meet the structural requirement, add value to the integrity of the structure and prevent failures. However, many design engineers lack even a fundamental insight or a basic understanding of essential welding processes and design requirements. Simply copying a few joint configurations in a drawing will not suffice. All-embracing and readable, Designing Weldments delivers a deeper understanding of number of design factors that play a critical role in the design. The book clarifies welding design principals and applications. With this reference in-hand, designers expert knowledge to consider very early on in the project implications of the choice of what type of weld to use for joining structural members and how the component is made. The author explains the many welding techniques developed over the years, as well as some of which are still evolving.
