What is groove weld joint?

Groove weld is defined as an opening between the two joint members which provides the space to contain the metal. Groove welds are the most used welds after the fillet weld.

What is fillet and groove welding?

If the weld is between the two workpieces, it is a groove weld. If the weld is beside the two workpieces, it is a fillet weld. Groove welds extend through the thickness of at least one of the workpieces. When the weld extends completely through the thickness of the joint, it is called complete joint penetration (CJP).

What are the 5 types of groove welds?

The basic types of groove welds include:

• Flare-bevel weld.
• Flare-V weld.
• Single-bevel groove weld.
• Single-J groove weld.
• Single-U groove weld.
• Single-V groove weld.
• Square groove weld.

What are the parts of a groove weld?

Identifying the Parts of a Groove Weld

• Bevel Face.
• Slope.
• Leg.
• Toe.

What is groove weld size?

Often associated with a groove weld is going to be the weld size. This weld size is the depth of penetration you will be getting when applying the weld. When a weld is applied we should be melting into the root of the part so our weld should be larger in dimension than the preparation of the joint.

Where is groove weld used?

Welders commonly perform groove welds to make edge-to-edge joints, although groove welds also are used for corner joints, T joints and joints between curved and flat pieces.

What is groove angle?

The included angle between the groove faces of a weld groove.

Is a groove weld a butt weld?

Groove welds and butt welds refer to the same weld type, where groove weld is the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) term, and butt weld is the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) term. Use the Groove Weld (ANSI) or Butt Weld (ISO) tool to create a groove or butt weld.

What is the most important factor in a groove weld?

The most important factors include the size and type of weld, edge preparation, metal thickness, reinforcement members and distortion. Each of the above factors can affect and change the process of welding.

What is the strongest type of Weld?

Welding is the strongest method of joining aluminum material together. It can form a water tight seal and provides the best electrical conductivity compared to other joining techniques.

What are the parts of a weld?

The parts of a weld include what is called a multipass weld. In other words you will find situations where you will need to lay down more than one weld bead to form a junction or weld… The diagram below shows you the heat affected zones when a butt weld is created using more than one ‘pass’ (or when you create more than one layer).

What does groove stand for?

groove(Noun) The middle of the strike zone in baseball where a pitch is most easily hit. groove(Noun) A pronounced, enjoyable rhythm. groove(Verb) To cut a groove or channel in; to form into channels or grooves; to furrow. groove(Verb) To create, dance to, or enjoy rhythmic music.

Is a fillet weld a CJP or PJP?

A fillet weld is neither a partial joint penetration or a complete penetration joint. CJP and PJP welds are groove welds, as shown in their SWPS details, where the welds penetrate a defined thickness of the material. “Fillet welds have a triangular cross section and are applied to the surfaces or edged of the material they join.”
