Welding Vocab 2

Subject : engineering
Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. 70% of the heat is concentrated in the workpiece; 30% of the heat is concentrated in the tungsten electrode; Deep penetration; Narrow weld area; welding other materials than aluminum or magnesium






2. Cut - notch or groove; quantity of something cut at the same time






3. Of or relating to or caused by a toxin or poison






4. Materials or liquids that catch fire easily






5. Planar weld discontinuity in which fusion does not occur between the weld metal and base metal or between adjoining weld beads






6. To treat - combine - or impregnate with carbon - as when casehardening steel.






7. A homogeneous solid that can exist over a range of component chemicals






8. American National Standards Institute; the governing body for standards in the U.S.






9. A condition that occurs when the arc does not follow its intended path from the electrode to the workpiece. Arc blow can cause undesirable weld beads.






10. Put into a certain place or abstract location

12. The surface of a material in contact with another to which it is or will be joined






13. Discontinuity in a groove weld in which the weld metal doesn't extend through the joint thickness.






14. Threshold Limit Value (TLV) of a chemical substance is a level to which it is believed a worker can be exposed day after day for a working lifetime without adverse health effects.






15. A government agency in the Department of Labor to maintain a safe and healthy work environment






16. The act of splashing a (liquid) substance on a surface






17. A low- carbon steel containing sufficient iron oxide to give a continuous evolution of carbon monoxide while the ingot is solidifying - resulting in a case or rim of metal virtually free of voids. Sheet and strip products made from rimmed steel ingot






18. Lack of connection of continuity






19. Air conditioning; alternating current






20. A widely used abbreviation for Material Safety Data Sheet. A MSDS contains details of the hazards associated with a chemical - and gives information on its safe use.






21. A mixture containing two or more metallic elements or metallic and nonmetallic elements usually fused together or dissolving into each other when molten

31. American Welding Society






32. A set of rules or principles or laws (especially written ones)






33. A phenomenon associated with surface tension and resulting in the elevation or depression of liquids in capillaries






34. Used to achieve better hardenability - which in turn improves its other mechanical properties. They are also used to increase corrosion resistance in certain environmental conditions. Difficult to weld.






35. Of or relating to sytems made up of combination of letters and numbers






36. An aperture or hole opening into a bodily cavity
