Year: 1967

Type: article

Abstract: The purpose of this report is to summarize the present state of aluminum-welding technology. The major topics covered are: Basic metallurgy of various heat-treatable and non-heat-treatable alloy classes; welding processes used for joining aluminum with emphasis on newer processes and procedures which are considered important in defense metals industries; welding characteristics of various alloys; comparison of tensile properties, cracking tendencies, notch toughness, and stress-corrosion characteristics of various weldments; dissimilar metal welds; and causes of porosity and cracking of aluminum welds and the effect of porosity on weld strength.
