Question Paper Code:: Anna University, Polytechnic & Schools

This document is a question paper for an examination on Welding Technology. It contains questions that assess students' knowledge of various welding processes and techniques. The paper is divided into three parts with multiple choice and descriptive questions. Part A contains 10 short answer questions worth 2 marks each on topics like oxyacetylene welding limitations, applications of TIG and MIG, differences between spot and seam welding, and classifications of weld joints. Part B has 5 long answer questions worth 13 marks each, requiring explanations of processes like TIG, resistance butt and ultrasonic welding along with comparisons of welding techniques. Part C contains 1 question worth 15 marks involving analysis of limitations and improvements related to electroslag welding or optimal weld joint design.
