Textbook Question
Chapter 30, Problem 65SDP
Lattice booms for cranes are constructed from extruded cross-sections (see Fig. 15.2) that are welded together. Any warpage that causes such a boom to deviate from straightness will severely reduce its lifting capacity. Conduct a literature search on the approaches used to minimize distortion due to welding and how to correct it, specifically in the construction of lattice booms.

Through illustrations explain the process of TIG Welding.
A circular electrode of 190 mm diameter is used for carrying out seam welding at 5 welds per cm on a mild steel tube of thickness 1.5 mm. The duration of the welding
cycle is given as On - 4 cycles, Off- 3 cycles. The power supply is at 50 Hz. Calculate work speed, welds per minutę, RPM, and energy requirement assuming effective
resistance between an electrode as 100u ohm.
Give information about the reasons why the weld is preferred over other fastening methods.
