Study Notes

Welding Discontinuities and Joint Preparation

  • Insufficient root opening can lead to inadequate joint penetration, incomplete fusion, and slag entrapment
  • Excessive root opening may cause melt-through, porosity, slag entrapment, and additional distortion
  • Misalignment of parts can cause insufficient effective throat and stress concentration at the weld root
  • Codes and specifications provide workmanship tolerances for bevel angle, root face thickness, and root openings
  • Table 2 summarizes the dimensional errors and resulting weld discontinuities or defects
  • Irregularities in the finished surface to be welded can lead to various weld discontinuities
  • Sheared surfaces may lead to porosity, slag entrapment, and incomplete fusion
  • Flame cut surfaces may lead to notches, irregularities, and slag adherence, causing discontinuities
  • Plasma cutting can produce notches, dross, and oxide film, leading to weld discontinuities such as porosity
  • Water jet cutting does not produce thermal changes or oxide formation, making it suitable for welding
  • Welding on machine-cut surfaces requires the removal of lubricants to avoid weld discontinuities
  • Codes, standards, and company welding procedures should always be consulted before cutting and material preparation begins
