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 weld's 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 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 America's largest manufacturers. Includes a deposition-rate appendix.
