| Description |
This is a Joint
Industry Project (JIP). The purpose is to develop welding electrodes to make wet welds
that will, to the greatest extent possible, meet the requirements for Class A dry welds.
This will be done be compensating for pressure-induced changes in weld metal. A realistic
goal may be Class A welds to 100 feet, Class B+ (reduced porosity and increased ductility)
from 100 feet to 200 feet, and consistent Class B welds to 300 feet. |
