This reference handbook describes in detail design techniques for creating machine designs in arc welded steel. Much of this material has had no previous publication. Theoretical analysis, problem-solution examples and case history studies explain how to design machine components for manufacturing economies and improvement of product performance through efficient use of steel's excellent physical properties. Since its publication, this book has become a standard reference manual for design problems in welded metal products. Design of Weldments includes 8 sections dealing with Weldesign, a system that reduces weight and cost and improves production. Includes a Lincoln Electric Welding Safety DVD and a Welding Resources DVD with refeence materials and other classroom items
