What are some joining conditions where welding might not be the best choice?

The joining conditions where welding might not be best choice.
Explanation of Solution
Welding is the process of joining two metals by melting the materials. The metals may join with the help of filler material or non-filler material. The filler material is consumable material by which the welding cost increases. Most of the manufacturing industries use this technique for joining metals. The welding process is used to create permanent joints, which are not easy to dislocate without deforming the shape of the material.
The conditions where this technique is not used are as follows,
- It is not used where temporary joints are needed.
- It is not used where the welding cost is high.
- It is not used in materials that possess poor weldability.
- It is not used in the materials which have a shallow melting temperature. For this type of material, low temperature joining methods are preferred.
- It is not used where joints involve thin material.

- Hi, can you please help me .Identify and justify suitable analytical techniques of the scenario below, bearing in mind the kinds of information being handled to reach a conclusion (methodology). A child swing set was discovered to have failed at the fixing at the top of the chains connecting the seat to the top of the swing set. A 12 mm threaded steel bolt, connecting the shackle to the top beam, failed at the start of the threaded region on the linkage closest to the outside side of the swing set . The linkage and bolts were made of electro galvanised mild steel . The rigid bar chain alternatives and fixings were of the same material and appeared to be fitted in accordance with guidelines. The yield strength of the steel used is 260 MPa and the UTS is 380 MPa. The bolt that failed was threaded using a standard thread with a pitch (distance between threads) of 1.75 mm and a depth of approximately 1.1 mm. The swing set in question had been assigned to ‘toddlers’ with the application of…arrow_forwardHi, can you please define and calculate the failure mode of the linkage that failed on the swing (images added) : A child swing set was discovered to have failed at the fixing at the top of the chains connecting the seat to the top of the swing set.
