Walkthrough
Welding: Principles and Practices, 5e, is a classic textbook that introduces students to the fundamentals of welding
theory and practice. This comprehensive book covers several welding processes—shielded metal arc welding, arc
cutting, and robotic welding, for example—and it also provides practice jobs for students, further enabling them to
develop a strong technical understanding of welding. This edition features a new, colorful design with modern photos
and engaging illustrations throughout!

Welding is usually the best method to use when fasten-
ing metal. If you want to build something made of metal,
you can fasten the parts by using screws or rivets, bending
the parts, or even gluing the parts. However, a quality,
long-lasting, attractive, safe product is best fabricated
by using one of the many types of prevailing welding
processes.
SH OP TA L K
Beams
Beams used in bridges must be
welded on both sides. In automated systems, a
second station can handle the reverse side, or a
turnover station is used to get the beam back to be
sent through a second time.
