The Welding Handbook for Maritime Welders.pdf

Taken from Solutions: Problem Steel: Among the low alloy steels, there is also a large group of special steels with complicated chemical composition. These include spring steel, vanadium steel, high speed steel, tool steel, etc. All these steel types are difficult to weld. In many cases the steel has been hardened by annealing, and welding can destroy the hardening.
In principle, all these steels can be welded with matching ferritic consumables with the aid of preheating and postweld heat treatment to avoid hydrogen cracking in the heat affected zone (HAZ).
In the case of repair welding, it is, however, often not possible to preheat or to perform any postweld heat treatment.
So, in this case, welding with austenitic stainless or nickel-based consumables is considered to be one of the best methods. The risk of cracking is reduced by the higher solubility of hydrogen and the greater ductility of the weld metal.
There are so many types of low alloy steel on the market today that even specialists have difficulty in keeping track of the entire range. Numerous types of special alloys not classified under existing standards, are marketed by the steel works. Most types can be welded satisfactorily with Unitor Tensile having a tensile strength of 850 N/mm2. This electrode may be used both for joining and for building-up work

Oxy/fuel gas equipment has many uses - welding, cutting, heating, straightening, and descaling. The equipment is versatile, easy to move about and relatively inexpensive. As a result, it is used widely in garages, machine shops, engineering workshops, plant maintenance and construction.

Toyota Collision Repair Information - Welding High Strength Steel (H.S.S.).pdf

Taken from REPAIR GUIDELINES
H.S.S. and ordinary steel parts in Toyota vehicles are welded using the same methods. The following precautions apply:
Use either spot welding or MIG/MAG (shield gas) welding. MIG/MAG (shield gas) welding should only be done by an experienced body shop person.
Only braze body components previously brazed at the factory and as indicated in the Toyota Repair Manual for Collision Damage.
Do not use an oxy–acetylene torch for fusion welding auto bodies. The large heat affected zone may destroy galvanized coatings and cause excessive panel distortions. In addition, an oxy–acetylene torch will reduce the strength and increase the brittleness of H.S.S.

Titanium - Design and Fabrication Handbook for Industrial Applications.pdf

Titanium offers an excellent combination of mechanical properties and corrosion resistance. These features, coupled with availability of product forms and ease of fabrication, have led to extensive use of titanium and its alloys in chemical process equipment. Titanium is now a standard material of construction for many chemical processes and equipment, and systems are being assembled by a variety of fabricators on a routine basis for use in many other industries.
