Chapter 35, Problem 3P

Figure 35.A schematically depicts the design of a go-cart frame with cross bars and seat support. The assembly is to be constructed from hot-rolled, low-carbon, box-channel material with miter, butt, and fillet welds at the 12 numbered joints. Because of the solidification shrinkage and subsequent thermal contraction of the joint material, the welds are best made when one or more of the sections are unrestrained. If the structure is too rigid at the time of welding, the associated dimensional changes are restricted, causing the generation of residual stresses that can lead to distortion, cracking, or tears.

Chapter 35, Problem 3P, Figure 35.A schematically depicts the design of a go-cart frame with cross bars and seat support.

  1. Consider the 12 welds in the proposed structure and recommend a welding sequence that would minimize the possibility of hot tears and cracks because of the welding of a restrained joint.
  2. Your company is developing a computer-assisted design program. Suggest one or more rules that could be programmed to aid in the selection of an acceptable weld sequence.

Your boss requests a recommendation on which process to use to weld the high strength structural steel rail tank cars hull section. You have this additional information: P-GMAW Productivity is substantially lower. However, you have welders already qualified to do manual p-GMAW welding. Labor is 80% of total cost HYPERFILLⓇ® Productivity gains are important, and the volume of the product is sufficient on the rail tank cars to justify capital investment. With confidence, you respond: Use process because .(Give process and short explanation for why you want to use that process)
QUESTION 1 In an arc welding operation, a groove weld has a cross-sectional area=0.055 in² and is 24 in long. (Round your final answers to 1 decimal place) (a) What quantity of heat (in Btu) is required to accomplish the weld, if the metal to be welded is aluminum? Btu (b) How much heat must be generated at the welding source, if the heat transfer factor = 90% and the melting factor = 60%? H= Btu
Assume that two 1.5-mm thick steel sheets are being spot welded at a current of 4000 A and current-flow time is 0.3 s. Using electrodes 5 mm in diameter, estimate the amount of heat generated and the amount of heat required to melt the weld nugget. Use an effective resistance of 350 un. Take u= 9,7 Joule/mm Which one of the following are correct? O a. If the electrodes were 7 mm diameter, the amount of heat generated would decrease b. The amount of heat generated by the equipment is between 1600 to 1700 Joules c. The equipment has enough power to weld the steel sheets. d. The equipment does not have enough power to weld the steel sheets e. The amount of heat required is between 700 and 750 Joules
