Question 1

When the ____ symbol is used, a length dimension is not needed.
A) weld-all-around
B) weld-around
C) weld-full
D) weld-completely

Accepted Answer

The "weld-all-around" symbol, when used in welding drawings, indicates that the weld is to be applied around the entire joint, making it unnecessary to specify a length dimension for the weld.

Question 2

The ____ weld is one of the most widely used types of welds.
A) fillet
B) fill
C) filling
D) filled

Accepted Answer

The fillet weld is one of the most common types of welds used in various industries such as construction, manufacturing, and engineering. It joins two pieces of metal at an angle, typically 90 degrees, and provides good strength and stability. The other options, fill, filling, and filled, do not accurately describe a specific type of weld.

Question 3

The fillet weld symbol is always drawn so that the ____________________ leg is to the reader's left.

Accepted Answer

vertical

Question 4

Intermittent welding consists of a series of ____ welds.
A) long
B) long-short-long
C) short-long
D) short

Accepted Answer

Intermittent welding consists of a series of short welds, which are used to reduce material distortion and save on welding material by not welding continuously along the entire length of the joint.

Question 5

In a fillet weld symbol, the two legs are assumed to be equal in size unless otherwise specified.

Accepted Answer

This is correct, the standard assumption for a fillet weld symbol is that the two legs are equal in size unless otherwise specified. If the legs are not equal, the larger leg length would be given first in the weld symbol, followed by the smaller leg length.

Question 6

____ lines are used as terminal points for the section lining.
A) Reference
B) Dimension
C) Extension
D) Extended

Accepted Answer

Extension lines are used as terminal points for the section lining. They indicate the extent of the section and help differentiate it from other parts of the drawing. Reference lines are used to show the location of features and dimension lines are used to indicate the size of features. Extended lines are a type of dimension line that is used when the dimension value is too large to fit within the regular length of the line. Therefore, the best choice for terminal points for section lining is C) Extension lines.

Question 7

Only the fillet weld symbol may be used in combination with other symbols.

Accepted Answer

The fillet weld symbol can only be used on its own and cannot be combined with other welding symbols.

Question 8

Each short weld in intermittent welding is called a(n) ____.
A) increment
B) increase
C) step
D) change

Accepted Answer

Each short weld in intermittent welding is called an increment.

Question 9

Specific lengths of fillet welds can be described by placing the symbols in conjunction with the ____ lines of the drawing.
A) reference
B) dimension
C) weld
D) control

Accepted Answer

Fillet weld lengths are indicated by placing a dimension between the end points of the weld. Therefore, the symbol is placed in conjunction with the dimension lines of the drawing to indicate the specific length of the fillet weld.

Question 10

When a length is not specified on the welding symbol, the fillet weld is assumed to be ____________________.

Accepted Answer

The answer of When a length is not specified on...

Question 11

If the fillet weld symbol has unequal legs, the size of each leg is indicated in ____ at the left of the weld symbol.
A) braces
B) brackets
C) dashes
D) parentheses

Accepted Answer

The size of each leg of a fillet weld with unequal legs is indicated in parentheses at the left of the weld symbol.

Question 12

Extension and ____ lines are occasionally used with the welding symbol to locate the desired welds.
A) reference
B) dimension
C) dashed
D) referring

Accepted Answer

Dimension lines are used alongside extension lines to accurately locate the desired welds on a drawing.

Question 13

If the length of the weld is specified, it is placed on the immediate left of the weld symbol.

Accepted Answer

If the length of the weld is specified, it is placed on the immediate right of the weld symbol.

Question 14

____________________ intermittent welding means that the welds appear directly opposite each other on the two sides of the joint.

Accepted Answer

The answer of ____________________ intermittent welding means that the welds...

Question 15

Fillet welds must always have equal legs.

Accepted Answer

Fillet welds can have unequal legs as long as the design specifications allow for it.

Question 16

The size of a fillet weld refers to the length of the ____ of the weld.
A) arms
B) sides
C) legs
D) stretchers

Accepted Answer

The size of a fillet weld refers to the length of the legs of the weld. The legs are the two sides of the triangular cross-section of a fillet weld.

Question 17

If a fillet is shown on both sides of the joint, it is identified as a(n) ____________________ fillet weld.

Accepted Answer

The answer of If a fillet is shown on both...

Question 18

When a general note covers the size of fillet welds, the dimension does not usually appear on the welding symbol.

Accepted Answer

When a general note covers the size of fillet welds, it typically does not include the dimension on the welding symbol itself.

Question 19

The center-to-center distance, in inches or millimeters of each increment, is the ____.
A) angle
B) step
C) groove
D) pitch

Accepted Answer

The center-to-center distance is referred to as the pitch.

Question 20

A(n) ____________________ represents length of weld.

Accepted Answer

The answer of A(n) ____________________ represents length of weld....
