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. A metal joint formed by softening with heat and fusing or hammering together






2. An affix that is added at the end of the word






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






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






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






6. Compliance for Safety Glasses






7. Steel whose characteristics are determined by the amount of carbon it contains






8. These are areas where your hands can become trapped or mashed between two objects






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






10. 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






11. A permit system for Hot Work is required by the State Fire Prevention Code and OSHA






12. The distance from which the electrode is from the base metal while you're welding.






13. Lack of connection of continuity






14. Department of Transportation






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






16. 30% of the heat is concentrated in the workpiece; 70% of the heat in concentrated in the tungsten electrode; Shallow penetration; Wide weld area; used only for welding thin sheet metal where low current is sufficient.






17. American Welding Society






18. Possible to burn






19. 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






20. A metal added in the making of a joint through welding - brazing - or soldering.

25. Containing little or no iron






26. A cloud- like area where welding fume collects
