Q

what is fall-through?

A. a technique for adding filler rod in the root bead
B. a low crater at the end of the weld
C. a localized area of excessive penetration
D. crater cracking as the result of failing to tail out

22
Q

in a multi pass welds, which pass is more susceptible to cracking?

A. the first filler pass
B. the cap pass
C. the second filler pass
D. the root pass

23
Q

a procedure used to help prevent weld bead crater cracking is :

A. tailing out prior to breaking the arc
B. using a shorter arc
C. increasing the electrode angel
D. breaking the arc and removing the filler road as quickly as possible

24
what is the purpose of pre-setting the 2G weld on plate? A. it makes them easier to tack. B. it compensates for shrinkage caused by stringer bead on multi-pass welding C. it makes the groove wider for better penetration D. the weld edges can be seen more clearly

27
if the gap is uneaqual after the first to tacks have been placed on pipe joint, you should: A. cut the joint apart and start the joint preparation all over again B. place the third tack on the tight side to even out the gap C. place the third tack at the widest location to even out the gap D. use a sledge hammer to even out the gap
28
which of the following would be most effective in reducing accidents caused by portable grinders kicking back?
