Now days, most of the structural fabrications possess welded joints that are produced using suitable welding technique.
However, the joining of thick plates in a single pass welding is a cumbersome task to many fabricators. Likewise, the selection of
welding technique, filler wire and welding condition for the similar and dissimilar welding of several metals is at the development
stage. The similar and dissimilar metal joints of have been emerged as a structural material for various industrial applications
which provides good combination of mechanical properties like strength, corrosion resistance with lower cost.
