 PART – A
To study of types of welding joints

Brief Introduction :-
A welding joint is a point or edge where two or more pieces of metal or
plastic are joined together. They are formed by welding two or more
workpieces (metal or plastic) according to a particular geometry. There
are five types of joints referred to by the American Welding Society:
butt, corner, edge, lap, and tee. These configurations may have various
configurations at the joint where actual welding can occur.

Aim of micro project :-

1. Study of types of welding joints and how the use of welding joints
2. To understand types of welding joints.

 PART – B
Brief introduction :-
A welding joint is a point or edge where two or more pieces of metal or
plastic are joined together. They are formed by welding two or more
workpieces (metal or plastic) according to a particular geometry. There
are five types of joints referred to by the American Welding Society:
butt, corner, edge, lap, and tee. These configurations may have various
configurations at the joint where actual welding can occur.

Aim of micro project :-

1. Study of types of welding joints and how the use of welding joints
2. To understand types of welding joints.

Theory :-
Welding is a complex craft that requires patience, an eye for detail and creativity. In
order to do their job successfully, welders must have an in-depth understanding of
the various techniques and practices used in the industry, which includes welding
joint types. According to the American Welding Society (AWS), a joint can be defined
as, “The manner in which materials fit together.” The applications of welding are
endless, and different jobs require different types of welds and joints.
There are five major welding joint types, which are each made to stand up to the
needs and forces of different applications. Keep reading to learn about each one and
how this can apply to a career in the field:

 Types of Welidings
1- Butt Welding Joint
Butt welds are welds where two pieces of
metal to be joined are in the same plane.
These types of welds require only some
kind of preparation and are used with thin
sheet metals that can be welded with a
single pass. Common issues that can
weaken a butt weld are the entrapment
of slag, excessive porosity, or cracking. For
strong welds, the goal is to use the least
amount of welding material possible. Butt
welds are prevalent in automated welding
processes, such as submerged-arc welding,
due to their relative ease of preparation.
When metals are welded without human
guidance, there is no operator to make adjustments for non-ideal joint preparation. Because of
this necessity, butt welds can be utilized for their simplistic design to be fed through automated
welding machines efficiently.

2. Tee Welding Joints

Tee Joint Tee welding joints are formed when two

members intersect at a 90° angle which makes the
edges come together in the center of a plate or
component.  Tee Joints are considered a type of fillet
weld, and can also be made when a pipe or tube is
welded onto a base plate.  Extra care is required to
ensure effective penetration into the roof of the weld.

3. Lap Welding Joint
Lap Welding Joint. Lap Joint. Lap welding joints are
used most often to joint two pieces with differing
thicknesses together. Also considered a fillet type, the
weld can be made on one or both sides. A Lap Joint is
formed when 2 pieces are placed in an over lapping
pattern on top of each other.

4. Corner Welding Joint

As the name suggests, these are joints that only

have the corners of two plates touching. The
angle between the plates varies, but it’s often
90° and leaves a big V to fill up. Either side of
the corner joint is usually welded, but the inside
corner is sometimes left without weld. When
these are welded correctly, they can produce a
smooth concave finish that looks fantastic.

What to know when welding corner joints

Be sure to clamp or brace your corner joints so
they don’t pull out of angle. Don’t crank
excessive heat into it, as this will add to the pull. Even if it’s braced, extreme heat can warp the
joint. It will need to relieve its heat stress, which the brace stops, so it can distort the whole
project instead. Be aware that the strength of the plates relies on the corner alone, as it’s
generally all that is welded unless permanent braces are used. Therefore, ensure the corner
has impeccable welds.

5. Edge Welding Joint
This welding joint is often applied to sheet
metal parts that have flanging edges. The
weld is placed at a location on the edge of the
metal and made to attach the adjacent
pieces. Often, they are set side-by-side and
welded on the same edge. The welding styles
used to create edge joints include: bevel-
groove weld, square-groove weld or butt
weld, J-groove weld, V-groove weld, edge-
flange weld, U-groove weld, and corner-
flange weld.

Conclusion :-
In Conclusion , industrial welding automation ensures higher productivity, quality profitability , and
finish. Welding processes have improved many sectors , and their have made welding/ fabrication a
growing industry.

Actual process followed :-

1. First of all we select our micro project topic.

2. Then we started to make our project report.

3. We started to collect more information about our project.

4. We collect the information from our book and from wikipedia.

10
Output of micro project :-

After performing this activity we came to known about the statistical techniques of quality
control in industry.

Coure outcome of micro project :-

a)Prepare a chart on statistical quality control techniques.
b)Observed the various statistical quality control techniques carried out in industry.

Skill development :-

1. Working with team members helps to develop our teamwork skill.

2. Also good understanding/good bonding with team members skill also developed while working
with team members.
3. Communication skills was also developed
4. We understand how to prepare chart and process of statistical quality control techniques
followed in industries
