Recommended bevel angle for single Vee groove butt joints on 3/8" (9.6mm) material

30 deg

Quick and efficient method to check the width of root face

Welding electrode core wire

What is root face?

Land

Why should you ensure that your tack welds are of good quality?

They become part of the weld

Why do you use E4310 (E6010) electrodes for root pass?

Deep penetration characteristics and fast freeze puddle

How long should the tack welds be?

1/4" - 3/8" (6.4mm - 9.6mm)

What is the recommended included angle for a single Vee groove weld on 3/8" (9.6mm) plate?

60 deg

What is the recommended land and gap for SMAW of 3/8" (9.6mm) plate with single Vee joint prep, using E4310 (E6010) for root bead?

3/32" - 1/8" (2.5mm - 3.2mm) for both land and gap.

What is a blister?

Shrinkage cavities

Rule of thumb for prep of open groove welds

Land equals gap

What is the moisture content of ER4310 (E6010)?

3% - 7%

Amperage range for 1/8" (3.2mm) E4310 (E6010) for 3G and recommend starting point

65-140 90 +/- 10

What should the electrode angle be for 3G

1/2 the included joint angle

What is the electrode inclination for 3G?

0 deg - 10 deg BH to FH for all passes

What does a keyhole tell you on the root pass?

Both root edges have melted

What is 1G, 2G, 3G, and 4G

All are groove welds


Flat, horizontal, vertical, and overhead

What does GF mean?

Groove and fillet weld combined into one weld

How much weld reinforcement should you leave on cap pass?

Approx. 10% of material thickness

What is the main purpose of the first fill pass?

To penetrate into the root and melt our any slag or undercut

Recommended electrode inclination for root pass on a 45 deg overhead open root groove weld using E4310 (E6010)?

0 deg - 10 deg BH

Recommended electrode inclination for fill and cap pass on 45 deg overhead groove weld using E4918 (E7018)?

0 deg - 10 deg BH or FH

Common problem with inclination in 4G position

Electrode melting off and inclination becomes too forehand

What happens if you use too much manipulative movement when doing the root pass with E4310 (E6010) in the 4G position

Generally fused but appears concave

Required spacing between the plates for the 4GF test assembly?

1/2" (13.0mm)

Where is the first pass placed in the 4GF weld?

At the junction forming a 90 deg angle

Where should the stop/starts on the root bead be on 4GF weld according to CSA standard W47.1

Fillet 4 1/2" (114mm)


Groove 1 1/2" (38mm)

What are three methods of removing the backing strip from the 4GF weld?

CAC-A


PAC


Mechanical means

What does CAC-A stand for?

Air carbon arc cutting

What does PAC stand for?

Plasma arc cutting

What are two methods to pierce a hole in a steel plate?

Traveling and still

Why should you remove the soapstone line with your cut when cutting a W shape?

To ensure the cut will fit the W shape once it's complete

What happens with incorrect inclination on fill pass on the 4G weld?

Undercutting bevel, high crown bead with trapped slag

Rule of thumb with inclination

Maintain inclination perpendicular to plate surface

What is the amperage range and recommended starting point for 1/8 (3.2mm) E4310 (E6010) for the 45deg 4G?

80-140 90 +/- 10
