Overview of ProcessSMAW is an early arc welding process used for ferrous and several nonferrous base metals. It usesa covered electrode consisting of a core wirearound which a concentric clay-like mixture of silicate binders and powdered materials (such asfluorides, carbonates, oxides, metal alloys andcellulose) is extruded. This covering is a source of arc stabilizers, gases to displace air, metal and slag
to protect, support and insulate the hot weld metal.

Overview of Process
GMAW process use a continuous solid wire toprovide filler metal, and use gas to shield the arcand weld metal. The electrode is solid and all of theshielding gas is supplied by an external source. Theshielding gas used has a dual purpose of protectingthe arc and weld zones from air and providingdesired arc characteristics. Gases are useddepending on the reactivity of the metal and thedesign of the joint to be welded.

GMAW Process Variations
In GMAW, the common variations of shielding gases, power sourcesand electrodes have significant effects that can produce threedifferent modes of metal transfer across the arc. These are:1) Spray Transfer It describes an axial transfer of small discrete droplets of metal at
rates of several hundred per second.2) Globular Transfer In this process variation, carbon dioxide -rich gases are used toshield the arc and welding zone.3) Short Circuiting Transfer In this transfer, the average current and deposition rates can belimited by using power sources which allow metal to be transferredacross the arc only during intervals of controlled short circuitsoccurring at rates in excess of 50 per second.

Figure 1 shows the equilibrium diagram for combinations of carbon in a solid solution of iron.The diagram shows iron and carbons combined to form Fe-Fe 3C at the 6.67%C end of thediagram. The left side of the diagram is pure iron combined with carbon, resulting in steelalloys.Three significant regions can be made relative to the steel portion of the diagram.1- Eutectoid E2- Hypoeutectoid A3- Hypereutectoid B.
The right side of the pure iron line is carbon in combination with various forms of ironcalled alpha iron ( ferrite ), gamma iron ( austenite ), and delta iron .The black dots mark clickable sections of the diagram.Allotropic changes take place when there is a change in crystal lattice structure.From 2802-2552F the delta iron has a body-centered cubic lattice structure.
At 2552F, the lattice changes from a body-centered cubic to a face-centered cubic latticetype. At 1400F, the curve shows a plateau but this does not signify an allotropic change.It is called the Curie temperature, where the metal changes its magnetic properties.Two very important phase changes take place at 0.83%C and at 4.3% C. At 0.83%C,the transformation is eutectoid, called pearlite .gamma (austenite) --> alpha + Fe 3C ( cementite )
At 4.3% C and 2066F, the transformation is eutectic, called ledeburite .--> +

A weld joint consists of weld metal (which has beenmelted), heat affected zones and unaffected basemetals. The metallurgy of each weld area is relatedto the base and weld metal compositions, thewelding process and the procedures used.When a weld is deposited, the first grains to solidifyare nucleated by the un-melted base metals, andthese grains maintain the same crystal orientation.Depending upon composition and solidificationrates, the weld solidifies in cellular or dendriticgrowth mode. Both modes cause segregation of alloying elements. Consequently, the weld matter may be less homogenous than the base metal.

The weld heat-affected zone is adjacent to the weld metal.
The heat-affected zone is that portion of the base metal that hasnot beenmelted, but whose mechanical properties or microstructure
have been altered by the heat of welding.
The width of the heat-affected zone is a function of the heatinput.
Heat-affected zones are often defined by the response of thewelded joint to hardness variation or micro structural changes.

When a weld is made: the metal in and around the weld joint is heated to a
range of temperatures as the distance from the weld joint increases.(temperature gradient)
Because of the Uneven heating, the strength, ductility, grain size and
other metal properties may vary greatly and affect the strength of themetal in the weld area.
Welder will use, as per WPS: preheating
concurrent (continuous) heating and/or
post heating to avoid temperaturegradients in the weld area.

Slag Inclusions
Entrapped slag discontinuities typically occur only withthe flux shielded welding processes: shielded metal arc,flux cored arc, submerged arc, and electro slag welding.
Entrapped slag is: A reaction product of the flux and the molten weld metal
Oxides, nitrides and other impurities may dissolve in the
slag to refine the weld metal

Cause Remedies
Excessive hydrogen, nitrogen, or oxygen inwelding atmosphere
Use low-hydrogen welding process, filler metalshigh in deoxidizers, increase shielding gas flow
High solidification rate Use preheats or increases heat input.
Dirty base metal Clean joint faces and adjacent surfaces.
Dirty filler wire Use special cleaned and packaged filler wire,
and stored in clean area. Improper arc length, welding current or electrodemanipulation
Change welding conditions and techniques.
Volatization of zinc form brass Use copper-silicon filler metal, reduce heatinput.
Galvanized steel Use E6010 electrodes and manipulate the archeat to volatize the zinc ahead of the moltenweld pool.
Excessive moisture in electrode covering or on joint surface
Use recommended procedures for baking andstoring electrodes preheat the base metal.
High sulphur base metal Use electrodes with basic slagging recreations

Common Causes and Remedies of Slag Inclusions
Cause Remedies Failure to remove slag Clean surface and previous weld bead
Entrapment of refractory oxides Power Wire brush the previous weldbead
Tungsten in the weld metal Avoid contact between the electrodeand the work. Use larger electrode
Irnproper joint design Increase groove angle of joint
Oxide inclusions Provide proper gas shielding
Slag flooding ahead of the welding arc Reposition work to prevent loss of slag control
Poor electrode manipulative technique Change electrode or flux to improveslag control
Entrapped pieces of electrode Use undamaged electrodes Covering

Common Causes and Remedies of Inadequate Joint Penetration
Causes Remedies Excessively thick root face orinsufficient root opening
Use proper joint geometry
Insufficient heat input Follow welding procedure
Slag flooding ahead of weldingarc.
Adjust electrode or work position
Electrode diameter too large Use small electrodes in root or increaseroot opening
Misalignment of second side weld Improve visibility or back gouge
Failure to back gouge whenspecified
Back gouge to sound metal if required inwelding procedure specification.
Bridging of root opening Use wider root opening or smallerelectrode in root pass.

Causes Remedies
WELD CRACKING
Highly rigid joint PreheatReliever residual stresses mechanicallyMinimize shrinkage stresses using back step orblock welding
Excessive dilution SequenceChange welding current and travel speedWeld with covered electrode negative, butter the
joint faces prior to welding
Defective electrodes Change to new electrode, bake electrode to removemoisture
Poor fit-up Reduce root opening, build up the edges with metal.
Small weld bead Increase electrode size, raise welding current,reduce travel speed
Higher sulphur base metal Use filler metal low in sulphur.
Angular distortion Change to balanced welding on both sides of joint.
Crater cracking Filler crater before extinguishing the arc, use awelding current decay device when terminating the
weld bead.

HEAT AFFECTED ZONE Hydrogen in welding atmosphere Use low-hydrogen welding process,
preheat and hold for 2h after welding orpost weld heat treat immediately
Hot cracking Use low heat input, deposit thin layers,
change base metal. Low ductility Use preheat anneal the base metal.
High residual stresses Redesign the weldment change weldingsequence, apply intermediate stress-relief heat treatment.
High hartdenability room Preheat increase beat input, heat treatwithout cooling to temperature.
Brittle phase in the microstructure. Solution heat treat prior to welding.
