b. Itis the area immediately adjacent to the weld metal, which has undergone a
microstructural change.
¢. Itis the weld area plus the parent material, which has undergone microstructural
change.

¢. Itonly occurs in the HAZ.
4. It is the most common type of crack encountered in steel weldments
‘The heat input during a fusion welding process:
Does not affect the grain structure of stee!, unless itis very high.
Must be as high as possible to avoid lack of fusion.
Affects the width and metallurgy of the HAZ..
Alof the above.

fabrication purposes?
4%,
0.54%,
0.33%.
0.12%.
ae sp
‘Why is pre-heat sometimes carried out on steels?
a. To remove moisture from the weld preparation.
To retard the cooling rate of the weld.
To aid fusion between weld metal and parent material.
All of the above.
aes
What four criteria are necessary to produce HICC?
a. Hydrogen, moisture, martensite and heat.
b, Hydrogen, poor weld profiles, temperature above 2000C and slow cooling.
c. A grain structure susceptible to cracking, stress, hydrogen and a temperature below
2000C.
d. Weld defects, perlite, hydrogen and a temperature above the melting point for the
material being welded.
How many temperature indicating crayons would be required to ensure a pre-heat
temperature was lying within a specified range?
al
b. 2.
c 3.
4. As many as possible
‘A carbon equivalent of 0.5%:
a. Is high for C-Mn steel and may require a pr-heat over 100°C.
b. Is generally insignificant for C-Mn steels and is certainly not to be taken into
consideration for pre-heat temperatures.
¢. Ishigh for C-Man steels and may require a pre-heat temperature over 300°C.
d. Is calculated from the heat-input formula.
