Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: The Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) process is widely used in various industrial applications due to its simplicity, versatility, and ability to produce strong, reliable welds. However, the mechanical properties of SMAW welded materials are significantly influenced by various parameters, including welding current, electrode type, heat input, and post-weld treatment. This project investigates the mechanical properties of materials welded using the SMAW technique, focusing on tensile strength andbending strength. The analysis includes the effects of varying welding parameters on the performance of the welded joints. Specimens were tested under controlled conditions to determine their tensile test, bending test, and radiographic test. Radiographic testing provided critical insights into the hidden defects within the welds, emphasizing the importance of both mechanical testing and non-destructive testing for ensuring the overall quality of SMAW welded joints. The findings of this project provide valuable insights into the relationship between welding parameters and mechanical performance, offering recommendations for improving the quality and durability of SMAW welded joints.
