Steel connections

[@smwebster2]

That is a groove weld bro.

[@Kingos77]

I went to that seminar you did and Miami for Building Systems...yes I passed the test. Thank you!

[@fettmaneiii4439]

that is not a double fillet weld, its a multi pass groove weld in a butt joint config.

[@3000gtwelder]

2:57 Is not a double Fillet weld. It is a Butt weld, or a Groove weld, probably double bevel full penetration.

[@amolinari9]

Magic Smoke FPV when you weld two sheets of thick steel together you’d want to do a butt weld typically but it’s not that clean or if you don’t do it well enough you’d want to go over it which is exactly what it looks like was done on the outside of the stair where 3 welds are present. The second set of welds after the butt could be considered fillet welds but they’re more to fill in any gaps that the butt weld didn’t cover. With that being said they could be considered single bevel groove welds?

[@ZAC____]

@@amolinari9 no those are cover passes on a cjp . Not fillet welds . Magic smoke is correct.

[@wyattellis7640]

Nice catch. I thought the same thing - cjp double bevel.

[@phillhuddleston9445]

I was about to say the same thing, this is very basic and shows the lack of basic knowledge on this channel.

[@3000gtwelder]

@@phillhuddleston9445 Well... Only basic knowledge for a welder I'd say, and I know a lot of them, that don't even know that much, so I wouldn't judge him to hard haha!

[@MilciadesAndrion]

This review of steel connections and the description of the type of welds are great teaching because they are critical aspects of building construction.

[@AMCM663]

So happy to come across your channel sir. You have simplified once complex concepts that makes me eager to learn. Kudos!

[@guywthclss]

I'm an engineer and CWI THIS IS NOT a double fillet!!! This is double bevel V - CJP or PJP groove weld. This guy has NO idea what he's talking about!!

[@haridasabhavana]

Sir. Many thanks and take a bow. so many of my unanswered questions that look simple but has a beautiful engineering explanantion in one channel. regards from India.

Frankensteel :D Awesome. Wish I would find this video half of year ago

[@theARK1T3CT]

Galling from what I've understood it to be, is specifically something that happens when threading metals together. It is what causes threads of a bolt to seize in the threads of a threaded hole or into a nut. When I was working for a fabrication company we would use anti-seize lubricant on all stainless steel connections to prevent galling and seizing. Can anyone expand on this from 2:33, maybe I'm misunderstanding the terminology. I wouldn't think that galling has anything to do with the necessity of a washer, even though the concerns requiring the washer are completely valid, is there another piece of terminology missing?

[@Tuffluck23]

nice, thank you...

[@amberbook]

You're welcome!

[@Delfinmar]

Thanks for the excellent video, I have a question...@ 2:59 how can a butt weld be a double fillet? Let me know please

[@3000gtwelder]

No doubt, I'm a welder and a Weld inspector, and that is not right lol.

[@karuppuswamys3239]

thanks for your video

[@mznv3760]

Please answer my question, what about end plate/splice plate/butt plate connection ( the plate is transverse to the beam cross section)

[@beachboardfan9544]

So when would you use these different types of connections?

[@dasariharikumar6029]

Can you please provide live video for installation of TC bolts at web conditions in site.

[@freebased_boomer709]

Research steam. Ancient technology

[@moonbeam_base]

Randomly skipped to 3:25 where he's calling a butt weld a "double fillet weld" and knew not to waste any more time. This video should be voluntarily taken down for wrong information.

[@fettmaneiii4439]

There is no possible way this guy will take down the video for being wrong- here is why: Listen to his voice. He has the voice of an office-bound soft handed guy. You can tell be the timbre of his voice that he owns books, maybe wears glasses, and presents as someone who rare if ever gets challenged by those around him. He has a large but sensitive ego, and won't admit it when he is wrong. Further, his channel name, "the amber team" and the fact that he mentions his place at some academic institution unequivocally guarantees that he will refuse to, and will never acknowledge when he is wrong and offer corrective action. He will simply go on believing that he is correct, and everybody else in the world are the ones who are wrong. You can tell all this by his voice, channel name, and that he mentions a university.

[@fettmaneiii4439]

Also, chances of him wearing glasses with a thick opaque frame glasses is above 85%. Update: I googled, I was correct.

[@zorkan111]

5:30 If you're gonna weld on the field, why even bother with the bolts? Why not just weld the whole thing together without the bolts?

[@adammau8504]

Eqinor its for erection.

[@drpfaff]

The steel beam can be supported by the bolts by itself while the welding can occur, making it far easier to build. If you had to hold the beam perfectly in place while welding it and waiting for the entire assembly to be completed, you would need to basically halt all other work while the welder finishes up each connection. With bolts, you can secure enough to have the beam stable, and then come back later and finish the moment connection before completion or moving up the to the next level, etc.

[@ZAC____]

All these answers are correct and also its 3 times more expensive to weld in the field vs the shop.
