CORRECTION
Reduce heat and allow more time between
passes.
Preheat base metal (consult welding codes
for requirements)
Use appropriate fi ller wire type and diameter
for the joint being welded.
CORRECTION
Clamp work piece tightly and weld while
clamps are in place.
Add more tack welds until rigidity and
stiffness is developed.
To reduce heat it is best to spread the welding
out around the area. This can be done by
using stitch welding techniques, alternating
sides, and/or taking your time and allowing
the pieces to cool between passes.
