Nadkarni S. Modern Arc Welding Technology 2ed 2018

Textbook in PDF format

Welding is a small but crucial part of metallurgy i.e. the science of discovering new metals and working efficiently with them. The welding specialist has to have an intimate knowledge of the properties, structure and behaviour of each metal as also new alloys and exotic variants for specific industries and applications. When metallurgy moves to the next phase of metal-working there are many skills and processes that need to be mastered.
