SOLUTIONS with Effective, Powerful Advice

Welding-books for Your Professional Library

Without doubt every Welding Professional needs a well furnished Library of Welding Books suited to his/her own interests and needs. Education and learning never end, while experience helps to improve performance.

(Sponsored Links)

We would like to propose hereafter a balanced List of Titles of Welding-books for our Readers to help them find and select those publications that, if studied thoroughly, will build the knowledge base necessary to their progress in a successful welding career.

This List, that we plan to update regularly, is only a fraction of what has been written on all the subjects relating to Welding-books. The Welding-books proposed are material for learning, and also for reference to solve a doubt and to find an explanation and a solution.

For serious persons willing to improve their knowledge and develop understanding there is no better means than good Welding-books, short of one to one personal interaction, to become acquainted and familiar with fundamental works written and edited by knowledgeable experts.

If a Public or a Company Library is accessible one should find and study the available material in Welding-books and then decide for the purchase if useful for study at home or at work.

A short description of the proposed Welding-books can be read in the Order page.If you look for specific Welding-books information that you cannot find, let us know and we will try to locate what you need. Write us by e-mail. Click on the Contact Us button in the NavBar, above left in this page to send us Your Questions and Feedback.

These are two of the best fundamental Welding-books available. The first two out of five Volumes, the series will be completed in a few years, to form a complete Welding Handbook built on the tradition of eight previous editions. These are rich in References to original work and accepted Standards and represent a must-have reference for engineers, metallurgists, structural designers, inspectors and anybody in need of Knowledge on Welding. Essential for Learning, indispensable for Reference, Strong on Theory, practical in Scope, rich in Information, these Books cannot be missing from any serious professional Library.

In this Welding-books collection, the new Volume 3 of the AWS Welding Handbook that has been recently published, was eagerly waited for. It includes the Second Part of the process section that is devoted to the following Welding Processes:

Resistance welding, projection-, flash- and upset-welding, Friction welding and Friction Stir welding. Solid State processes (ultrasonic- and explosion-welding), adhesive bonding, thermal- and cold-spraying, diffusion processes. High energy (Electron beam and Laser) welding. Other welding and cutting processes fill the last Chapter.

The fifteen Chapters and 669 pages of the present Volume 3 deal with all processes that were not covered by Volume 2 with a richness of detail and information rarely matched by other publications.

A short review of this last Volume was published (2) in Issue 53 of Practical Welding Letter for January 2008.
To see it click on PWL#053.

Two more volumes, Vol. 4 and Vol. 5 on Materials and Applications will complete the 9th edition when they are published sometime in the future. In the meantime Vols. 3 and 4 of the 8th edition indicated hereafter are still available and may be useful for reference.

These two Welding-books pertain to the last available Edition (the 8th) of the Welding Handbook introduced above.
The two Volumes are very useful in their own right as they fill a most urgent need to anybody looking for metallurgical information on different materials and examples of practical Applications confirmed by proven experience.
The books will not be obsolete anytime soon. They are rich in Tables, colorful Figures, Charts and Photos and cover most of materials and processes used in Industry.
It is out of question that they were written to enlarge the vision of the scholar and of the professional, to provide authoritative research tools and complete answers.
