The Practical Reference Guide to Arc Welding Steel


How can low-carbon, low-alloy steels be treated to exhibit desirable traits such as very high yield strength, good ductility, and notch toughness? What are the advantages/limitations of shielded metal arc, gas metal arc, flux cored arc, and submerged arc welding? This newest entry in the Practical Reference Guide series has the answers. Roughly half of its pages discuss behavior of steels in a welds thermal and mechanical environment. This common-sense guide makes hard-to-weld items weldable. With its well-structured descriptions, explanations, and illustrations, The Practical Reference Guide to Arc Welding Carbon Steel fits neatly between Everyday Pocket Handbooks and AWS Recommended Practices in scope and depth. Compiler Eugene Hornberger, SCWI, has 20 years of instructional experience with CWI exam candidates and private training for some of Americas largest manufacturers.

The Industrial Hobarts


Peter C. Hobart, former vice president for international business at Hobart Brothers, and historian Michael W. Williams tell this clear and engaging story of three generations of the Hobart family. The Hobarts used imagination and ingenuity to compete within the electrical-power, food-processing, office-furniture, transportation, construction, defense, and aerospace industries. Stimulated by a corporate culture that encouraged teamwork and creativity, company engineers earned scores of patents. In the growth of their familys business, the Hobarts found purpose and success in the golden age of American industry. Enriched by a wealth of photographs, dozens of interviews, and a variety of other primary sources, The Industrial Hobarts is a microcosm of the history of the industrial Midwest. It spans the era from the infancy of electrical lighting to robotic laser welding, cutting, and coating systems. This fascinating story will captivate anyone interested in technology, business, history, or people. 256 pages, hardbound, (2003).

D17.1:2001, Specification for Fusion Welding for Aerospace Applications
This revolutionary document represents the most significant change to aviation welding standards in more than 30 years, including coverage in three areas never addressed in MIL-STDs: design, repair, and nonflight hardware. And, for the first time, there are authoritative procedures for weld repair of in-service (existing) aerospace flight hardware. In fact, the standards use of weld repair technology enables weld overhaul beyond the areas originally designated for a weld. Bolstering the excellent coverage on inspection is information to avoid both under- and over-inspection, arising from the D17 Committees position that, Choosing acceptance criteria beyond the capability of the welding process may lead to numerous inspection rejections, increasing costs. To help, tables on acceptance criteria (one in U.S. Customary units, the other in SI units) provide distinctions for Class A, B, and C welds. Also includes an annex offering Guidelines for Design, Analysis, and Fabrication of Weld Joints.

D3.6M:1999, Specification for Underwater Welding


Developed by leaders in underwater welding, this specification covers the requirements for the underwater welding of structures or components in wet and dry environments. The first six sections cover the general requirements for underwater welding, while sections 7 through 10 contain the special requirements applicable to four levels of welding: above-water welding, welding for less critical applications, welding where load bearing is not a primary consideration, and welding to meet the requirements of another code or specification. This is critical information on general underwater welding provisions, the classification and design of welded connections, workmanship, technique, and qualification. Includes sample welding forms, terms and definitions, guidelines on safety, references, and other information. ANSI Approved. 144 pages, 6 annexes, (1999).

Security Features for Electronic Downloads
In an effort to protect their intellectual property and enforce existing copyright laws, many Standards Developing Organizations have required all distributors of their content to implement security features that prevent the reproduction and redistribution of downloaded documents. AWS and Global Engineering Documents have implemented a security policy that uses a free Adobe Acrobat plug-in from FileOpen Systems, Inc. Security Features: Reproduction and Redistribution Restrictions: The free Adobe Acrobat plug-in locks the PDF file to the computer on which it was first opened. Once a PDF file has been locked to a computer, it can be opened only from that computer. Networking Restrictions: Secure PDF files cannot be used in a multi-user, network environment. If you are interested in purchasing standards for your internal corporate network, please contact your local Global office to obtain a network version of the document(s) and a network license. Viewing Restrictions: You must download the free plug-in to view any secured PDF document. There is no limit to the number of times a document may be viewed on your computer. Printing Restrictions: The plug-in limits the number of times the document may be printed to one copy. Since the software interprets printing a part of the document as the one allowable print attempt, we recommend you print the entire document. Copy & Paste Restrictions: The ability to copy and paste text from the PDF file has been disabled.

6. Standing Orders The Standing Order program offers an advantage to customers who wish to maintain current files of AWS standards and publications. By completing and returning the Standing Order Agreement form on page 43 of this catalog, new and revised versions of documents you have ordered previously will be shipped to you automatically and invoiced accordingly. The Standing Order Agreement can be canceled at any time. Contact Global for additional information. 7. Sales Tax All U.S. purchases must include applicable state and local sales tax. Customers claiming tax exempt status must provide Global with a copy of their exemption certificate. 8. Shipping (U.S. Orders) Most orders will be shipped the same day. U.S. orders are shipped via traceable means (primarily UPS ground). Other delivery options include nextday service, electronic delivery, and fax transmission. 9.
