Activity Title: Common cause, defects and cure for weld

I. Introductory Concept
This Learning Activity Sheet covers the knowledge and skills involved in shielded metal
arc welding. This includes defects, common cause and cure for weld defects. Read,
understand the lesson and accomplish the given activity with utmost honesty.
A. Readings/Discussions
Common cause, defects and cure for weld
Poor parent metal preparation and poor technique in manipulating electrode during
welding process can cause weld defects and discontinuities. It is important that all welder
should know what the welding defects that they will encounter and how to work around and fix
it. Here are some of the welding defects, its causes and possible remedies.

Defects Cause Cure/ Remedy


1. Arc Blow Is caused when magnetic forces Reduce current or suitable
present in DC build up lines of polarity
magnetism around the arc and
cause the arc to blow wildly forward Change current to AC
or to outside, and spatter badly.

It can also be caused by high


amperage and the major problem
areas are thick plates, corners,
deep groove and the start and finish
of joints.

2. Pinholes and Both pinholes and porosity can be Use shorter arc length and
porosity caused when length is too long and keeping the puddle molten

the gasses may boil out

caused when length is too long and
travel is too fast. Use dry electrode and
clean the surface of the
base metal.
3. Undercutting It is usually caused by too high Reduce the current and
current of too long arc length. shortening the arc length.

2. Interview at least four (4) welders in your area. Ask them the common defects that they
encountered in welding and how they repaired the defects. Compose a short narrative report
about your interview and make sure that your work is signed by the welder as a proof that an
interview was conducted. Narrative report must be written in a separate paper. (Browse the
internet and search what are the common defects encountered in a welding shop and
make a short narrative report about your findings. Answer must be written in a separate
paper. This activity should be used in lieu of the actual interview of welders during this
pandemic time.)
