The welding of aluminium and its alloys is a practical user s guide to all aspects of welding aluminium and aluminium alloys, giving a basic understanding of the metallurgical principles involved. The book is intended to provide engineers with perhaps little prior acquaintance with the welding processes involved a concise and effective reference to the subject. It covers weldability of aluminium alloys; process descriptions, advantages, limitations, proposed weld parameters, health and safety issues; preparation for welding, quality assurance and quality control issues. It is essential reading for welding engineers, production engineers, production managers, designers and supervisors involved in the aluminium fabrication industry.
Key Features: a practical user's guide by a respected expert to all aspects of welding of aluminium; designed to be easily understood by the non-metallurgist whilst covering the most necessary metallurgical aspects; demonstrates best practice in fabricating aluminium structures.
