Features: This book introduces the physical properties, chemical composition, and mechanical properties of steel used in architectural steel structures; the characteristics of welding in architectural steel structures; common welding and cutting methods, including: shielded metal arc welding (SMAW), submerged arc welding (SAW), gas metal arc welding (GMAW) and flux-cored arc welding (FCAW), electric slag welding (ESW), gas-shielded welding and self-shielded flux-cored arc welding, rivet welding, resistance spot welding, carbon arc gouging, and oxygen cutting. It elaborates on the basic principles, characteristics, applicable scope, welding equipment, welding materials, welding processes, welding defects, and preventive measures for various welding methods; it also covers welding quality management, welding safety, and equipment maintenance. Additionally, it provides engineering case studies and suggests discussion questions. In the appendices, the shapes and dimensions of joint preparations, common welding equipment, and welding materials are listed. This book is suitable for technical personnel engaged in the production and construction of welding in architectural steel structures for study and reference, and can also serve as a training textbook for welders.
