One Side Welding--Flux Development--and Study of Multiple Arc Behavior

Abstract

The purpose of this report is to present the results of one of the research and development programs initiated by the members of the Ship Production Committee of The Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers (SNAME) and financed largely by government funds through a cost sharing contract between the U.S. Maritime Administration and Bethlehem Steel Corporation. The effort of this project was directed to the development of improved methods and hardware applicable to shipyard welding in the U.S. shipyards. Mr. W. C. Brayton, Bethlehem Steel Corporation was the Program Manager, Mr. G. D. Uttrachi, Linde Division of Union Carbide Corporation, was the Senior Project Engineer who provided the technical direction. The work was performed at the Union Carbide Research Facility at Tarrytown, New York. Special acknowledgement is made to the members of Welding Panel SP-7 of the SNAME Ship Production Committee who served as technical advisors in the preparation of inquiries and evaluation of sub-contract proposals.
