Abstract: The lecturer gave an interesting address on the microstructure of arc welds, and showed a number of informative slides, a valuable series of which showed the deposition of electrodes with varying carbon content for rebuilding worn rails to their original section. The results of numerous tests of corrosion produced by weak acid showed that the weld was, if anything, electro-negative to the plate. But , there was no evidence of any practical increase in the, tendency to corrosion. Some lantern slides were shown of welded joints which had been subject to bending and re-bending . and the deduction made was that with careful weldir the joint was as flexible and as strong as the plate.
