9.3 Tack Welding procedure of negative connection A tack welding is a kind of welding that describes how welding is to be carried out in production. Welding usually is recommended for all welding strict application operations and approved document make them mandatory. But this tack welding is considered only physical connection to void electrical isolation between the rebar and negative connector or anode ribbon mesh and anode conductor. That is why this tack welding is simple and different with strict SMAW because the tack welding is no need free of leakage, force of tension and other strict requirement. Tack welding generally is doing like arc welding procedure without strict test and qualification. Worker must be skilled and qualified by DEC’s welding quality control department.

Attachment - I Spot welding procedure 1) General Spot welding will be used for connection of ribbon mesh and anode conductor which is very thin metallic as shown the below. Spot welding is a resistance welding process for joining metal sheets by directly applying opposing forces with electrodes with pointed tips. By one or two electrode The current and the heat generation are localized by the form of the electrodes. The weld nugget size is usually defined by the electrode tip contact area. Spot welding for CP work also used to connect electrical conductivity without force of tension and other reason. Worker for spot welder must be trained and qualified by DYCE. Spot welding is simple and different with strict SMAW because the spot welding is no need free of leakage, force of tension and other strict requirement. Spot welding generally is doing like resistance spot welding procedure without strict test and special qualification. But have to training the person for spot welding- Refer to below clause 2). Training and quality testing. The following inspection should be performed.

① Completeness. ② Free of harmful defect and visual inspection .

The inspection result shall be recorded on form No.1.

Note: Spot welding shall be carry out opposed welding or series welding to met quality

testing acceptable.
