This section provides a broad overview of critical welding knowledge, combining material properties, filler metal classifications, mechanical testing, tool usage, and certification principles. It explores the roles of elements such as silicon and manganese in welding metallurgy, properties such as toughness, brittleness, and compressive strength, and various metal types, including ferritic and martensitic stainless steels. The content also emphasizes the correct use of welding tools, such as C-clamps, cam-lock clamps, and abrasive grinding disks, as well as proper inspection methods, including visual testing and bend testing. Additionally, it discusses welder certification requirements, electrode classification systems, and factors influencing weldability and performance. Concepts from mechanical drawing—such as line types, scales, and views—are integrated to strengthen blueprint interpretation skills. Overall, this material equips learners with the theoretical and practical foundation necessary for safe, precise, and certified welding operations.

WLD310 - Essential Concepts of Welding
Properties Materials Classification Certification
Tools and Mechanical Drawing Interpretation in
Modern Welding Practice
____ act as scavengers that combine with contaminants and float to the slag on top of the weld. -
Silicon and manganese✅✅✅

____ clamps are specialty clamps that are often used in conjunction with a jig or a fixture. They can
be preset, allowing for faster work. - cam-lock✅✅✅

____ clamps are very similar to bar clamps. The advantage of these clamps is that the ends can be
attached to a section of standard 1/2-in. (13 mm) pipe. - pipe✅✅✅

____ have been specially designed for welding. Some of these clamps have a spatter cover over the
screw, and others have their screws made of spatter-resistant materials such as copper alloys. - C-
clamps✅✅✅

____ indicates a brazing filler metal. - B✅✅✅

____ indicates a filler metal that is used as a current carrying electrode, as a rod, or both. -
RB✅✅✅

____ is a compound of iron and carbon, Fe2C. - Cementite✅✅✅

____ is dimensioned by its diameter and schedule or strength. - pipe✅✅✅

____ is the ease with which a metal will crack or break apart without noticeable deformation. -
Brittleness✅✅✅

____ is the property that allows a metal to withstand forces, sudden shock, or bends without
fracturing. - Toughness✅✅✅

____ is usually 3/16 in. (4.8 mm) or thicker and measured in inches and fractions of inches. -
plate✅✅✅

____ lines show the edge of an object, the intersection of surfaces that form corners or edges, and the
extent of a curved surface, such as the sides of a cylinder. - object✅✅✅

, ____ looks to see that the weld is uniform in width and reinforcement. - Visual inspection✅✅✅

____ point to a part to identify it, show the location, and/or are the basis of a welding symbol. -
Leaders and arrows✅✅✅

____ show an alternate position of a moving part or the extent of motion such as the on/off position of
a light switch. They can also be used as a place holder for a part that will be added later. - Phantom
lines✅✅✅

____ show the center point of circles, arcs, round, or symmetrical objects. They also locate the center
point for holes, irregular curves, and bolts. - centerlines✅✅✅

____ stainless steels are used for ornamental or decorative applications such as architectural trim, and
tend to be brittle. - Ferritic✅✅✅

____ stainless steels are used in applications requiring both wear resistance and corrosion resistance,
such as surgical knives and razor blades. - Martensitic✅✅✅

____ strength is the property of a material to resist being crushed. - Compressive✅✅✅

____, such as those for pipe welding, are available for many different types of jobs. Such clamps
make it possible to do faster and more accurate assembling. - Specialty clamps✅✅✅

A ____ line will make a long, straight line on metal and is best used on large jobs. - chalk✅✅✅

A ____-in. taper of the weld bead is all that is required to allow the new weld to be started without
having excessive buildup. - 1/4✅✅✅

A core wire is the primary metal source for a weld. - true✅✅✅

A high sulfur content is most often responsible for cold cracking in steel. - false✅✅✅

A metal cannot be both hard and ductile. - true✅✅✅

A metal's strength is affected by the direction it is rolled because of its grain structure. - true✅✅✅

A new certification test is required for each welding process. - true✅✅✅

A qualified or certified welder can weld anything. - false✅✅✅

A signal from the ____ indicates that the parts are in place. - positioner✅✅✅

A sketched drawing can be made with or without the use of drawing tools such as scales,
straightedges, curves, and circle templates. - true✅✅✅
