Lincoln Welding book title

[PSlem]

I did a calc I had saved based on the torsion chapter in the old, 1960's? Lincoln Welding big black book. I'm being asked the source. I could not find the book at the Lincoln web site. What is the proper name of the book? Besides torsion, it had a chapter on castellated beams, if that helps.

"Design of Welded Structures", by Blodgett

Although dated, it is a great book. Very inexpensive too, if you can find a tech book store that stocks it.

They might carry this item.

Buy it new, direct from Lincoln Electric for less than half the price at a bookstore or website (that has it in stock). Here is a link

Don't take my word for it, go to

http://www.fetchbook.info

and search on the title "Design of Welded Structures".

SlideRuleEra's post is right on and while you at the Lincoln Foundation Book Store look at the other books like Blodgett's "Design of Weldments" and like was stated before you can't beat the prices.

Design of Welded Structures is a great book, but it is blue. The black book is "The Procedure Handbook of Arc Welding" published by the Lincoln Electric Company, Cleavland Ohio. I have the 12th ed.1973. Design for Torsion is in section 2. I suspect there may be a more current version

I recently bought these books - few years ago (design of welded structures & design of weldments). Colors are blue and brown respectively. They cover some of the same material - i.e. some overlap. Very good books, with content well presented (although as mentioned a bit dated). Cant beat the price for a good reference...
(although i did pay a stiff duty to ship to canada)

I have the book. It is blue. Unfortunately I ordereed before i saw the $22 siter so paid $36, but compared to all the $100 books I've bought to discover nothing new inside, it's a real bargain.
