The book approaches the problems encountered during welding and in the welds produced starting with the problems and working backward to the causes and resolutions. The book is logically divided into three parts to help the readers and cognizant engineers hunt down the cause and cure for an encountered problem. The first part shows how certain problems manifest themselves, the second part goes into detail where these problems occur, and the third part elucidates their causes. Every chapter ends with a table for trouble-shooting problems addressed in that chapter.
