This text provides total instruction in welding, other joining processes, and cutting that takes students from elementary procedures to technician skills. Based on the recommendations of the American Welding Society and other authorities, this text is accurate and thorough. Both the principles (why) and practice (how to) are presented for gas, arc, and semi-automatic welding, brazing, soldering, and plastic welding processes. The text offers comprehensive treatment of equipment, electrodes, typesof joints and welds, testing and inspection, metals and their welding characteristics, safety, and print reading. Photographs and drawings show the latest techniques and equipment. Course outlines are provided for each major process with emphasis on learning by doing.

Introduction to Welding and Brazing covers the various aspects of metal joining processes, theory, practice, and application. This book is composed of nine chapters. Considerable chapters are devoted to the processes, practice, and principles of arc, resistance, and pressure welding. A chapter describes the principles and applications of other welding processes, such as gas, thermit, and electron beam welding. The final chapters deal with the metallurgical application, practice, and principles of soldering and brazing. This book will be of value to the researchers and workers in the metal joining fields.

Covers basic sheet-metal fabrication and welding engineering principles and applications. This title includes chapters on non-technical but essential subjects such as health and safety, personal development and communication of technical information. It contains illustrations that demonstrate the practical application of the procedures described.

About the many ways in which metal parts may be assembled by welding, the principles of operation, main characteristics and applications. The emphasis throughout is on how processes work.
