I.5.6. System cleaning

I.5.7. Welding

The following are state of the art welding techniques that can be utilized to increase the quality of the welds and the safety of welding. Many experimental studies and analyses have been done on welding techniques. A source of studies, if experimental and theoretical information is needed, is the ASME digital library (http://www.asmedl.org/)
