QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS GUARANTEED TO
PASS
◉ Cascade Sequence.
Answer: A combined longitudinal and cross sectional sequence in
which weld passes are made in overlapping layers.
◉ Chain Intermittent Fillet Weld.
Answer: An intermittent weld on both sides of a joint in which the
weld increments on one side are approximately opposite those on
the other side.
◉ Cladding.
Answer: A surfacing variation that deposits or applies surfacing
material usually to improve corrosion or heat resistance.
◉ Complete Joint Penetration.
Answer: A joint root condition in a groove weld in which weld metal
extends completely through the joint thickness.
,◉ Concave Fillet Weld.
Answer: A fillet weld having a concave face.
◉ Concavity.
Answer: The maximum distance from the face of a concave fillet
weld perpendicular to a line joining the weld toes
◉ Convex Fillet Weld.
Answer: A fillet weld having a convex face.
◉ Convexity.
Answer: The maximum distance from the face of a convex fillet weld
perpendicular to a line joining the weld toes.
◉ Corner Joint.
Answer: A joint between 2 members located approximately at right
angles to each other in the form of an 'L'.
◉ Depth of Groove.
Answer: The perpendicular distance from the base metal surface to
the root edge or the beginning of the root face.
◉ Depth of Fusion.
,Answer: The distance that fusion extends into the base metal or
previous bead from the surface melted during welding.
◉ Edge Joint.
Answer: A joint between the edges of 2 or more parallel or nearly
parallel members.
◉ Edge Preparation.
Answer: The preparation of the edges of the joint members, by
cutting, cleaning, plating, or other means.
◉ Edge Shape.
Answer: The shape of the edge of the joint member.
◉ Edge Weld.
Answer: A weld in an edge joint, a flanged butt joint, or a flanged
corner joint in which the full thickness of the members are fused.
◉ Effective Throat.
Answer: The minimum distance, minus any convexity, between the
weld root and the face of a fillet weld.
◉ Face Reinforcement.
, Answer: Weld reinforcement on the side of the joint from which
welding was done.
◉ Faying Surface.
Answer: The mating surface of a member that is in contact with our
in close proximity to another member to which it is to be joined.
◉ Fillet Weld.
Answer: A weld of approximately triangular cross section joining 2
surfaces approximately at right angles to each other in a lap, T, or
corner joint.
◉ Fillet Weld Leg.
Answer: The distance from the joint root to the toe of the fillet weld
◉ Flanged Butt Joint.
Answer: A form of a butt joint in which at least one of the members
has a flanged edge shape at the joint.
◉ Flanged Corner Joint.
Answer: A form of a corner joint in which the butting member has a
flanged edge shape at the joint
