Existing Steel Weldability
Existing Steel Weldability
(OP)
Our office is working in a number of existing buildings, 1900-1930's, and would like a procedure for determining the weldability of what we assume to be A7 or A9 steel.
When was the last time you drove down the highway without seeing a commercial truck hauling goods?

RE: Existing Steel Weldability
In general welding should be possible with proper procedure to account for chemistry........we welded to many old bridges when I was with the railroad, built during early 1900's and earlier........
Of course, you should verify the chemistry of the steel for any critical welding.........the necessary welding procedures should be explained in AWS code or one of their publications.....
