Welcome to our Resources Page.  Here is a list of books and other products which we use personally and believe will add value to our readers.

The Procedure Handbook of Arc Welding:
This is our go-to resource of choice.  It is full of useful information from welding history to estimating material and labor costs.  It includes hundreds of welding procedures for different arc welding processes, helpful guides in selecting the right filler metal for different alloys and detailed explanation on how the difference arc welding processes work.

Qualification of Welding Procedures, Welders and Welding Operators (Electronic File)

If you are using AWS D1.1 Structural Welding Guide (Steel) to qualify welding procedures and welders this guide provides step-by-step instructions.  Following AWS D1.1 can be complicate if you have no experience using this code. This guide makes the complex task of complying to D1.1 for qualification of welding procedures and welders a breeze. The step-by-step instructions and real life examples help you by telling exactly what to do to perform qualifications. It also explains when prequalified welding procedure can be used.  This is a significant advantage allowed by AWS D1.1 as it can save you significant amounts of time and money by being exempt from costly testing.  Learn more about this guide here.

AWS D1.1/D1.1M:2015 Structural Welding Code – Steel

The New D1.1 spells out the requirements for design, procedures, qualifications, fabrication, inspection and repair of steel structures made of tubes, plate and structural shapes that are subject to either static or cyclic loading.

Warrior Welding Inspection Gage

In addition to measuring fillet sizes this gage will help you check permissible tolerance for convexity, concavity, underfill, and reinforcement.

7 Piece Fillet Weld Gage:
This easy-to-carry set of gages will allow you to quickly and easily measure fillet weld sizes.  It also tests to insure you have the proper weld face (flat or slightly convex). This tool is not only for inspectors and supervisors but also for welders.
