In simple words, Interferometry is nothing but the use of optical interference to carry out precise measurements of very small linear dimensions of slip gauges. The interferometer works on the same basic principle as that of an optical flat. In the previous article, we have discussed what is Interferometry in Metrology, in this article we […]

What are Electric Arc Welding Types?
This Electric Arc welding is the most commonly seen welding process in our life. Yes! the welding that you see in the welding shops to construct the metal gates, vehicle body repairs, and common engineering works. Those are all not the same Electric Arc Welding types. Let us discuss different types of Electric Arc Welding, […]
What are the Gas Welding Types, Flame types, and Equipment?
Gas welding is a fusion type of welding, which uses the flame of an oxy-acetylene or hydrogen gas from a welding torch upon the surfaces of the prepared joint. There are different gas welding types based on the type of gas for the flame we use for the welding. Let us discuss more details about […]
Welding Processes Classification
A welded joint is a permanent joint. This welded joint can be made by the fusion of the edges of the two parts to be joined together, with or without the application of pressure and filler material. Based on this the welding process is classified. In this article, we are going to discuss the Welding Processes […]
Advantages and Disadvantages of Welded Joints over Riveted Joints
In the previous article, we have discussed the riveted Joint, which is a permanent type joint. In this article, we will discuss the different Advantages and Disadvantages of Welded Joints over Riveted Joints. First of all, what is a Welded Joint? Welded Joint A welded joint is a permanent joint. This welded joint can be […]
Failure of Riveted Joints
Have you ever seen the Failure of Riveted joints? That’s right. that is one of the ways it fails. There is shear in the Rivets as per the above failure picture. The following image is a sample of the Failure of a Riveted joint due to the tearing of the plate. So, there are different […]
What is Engineering Mechanics?
Engineering mechanics is a branch of science, that deals with the which deals with the laws and principles of Mechanics, along with their applications to engineering problems. As a matter of fact, knowledge of Engineering Mechanics is very essential for an engineer in planning, designing, and constructing various types of structures and machines. In order […]
ASME Codes for Piping System
In the previous article, we had an introduction to the piping systems, Piping applications, Piping Material selection, Pipe Joints, Pipe Fittings, and Piping system standards. Among the different Piping standards, One of the most used standards for the piping system is ASME B31. Which regulates the design, material selection, inspection, test, and safety of the […]
Introduction to Piping System | What is piping?
After a few requests from my readers, I am finally writing about the introduction to the Piping system. As we all knew, Pipes are used to transporting fluids, slurries, and sometimes even very fine particles. The most common application we see in the piping is Plumbing in our buildings, workplaces, and many places where water […]
What are the different types of Riveted Joints?
What is a Rivet? Well, A Rivet is a permanent fastening element mostly used for fastening light metals of plates in Boiler shells, structural works, Shipbuilding, and bridges. In the previous article, we have discussed the Riveted joint method, Different Rivethead types, and the materials used for the Rivets according to the Indian Standards. In this article, we are […]
What is Caulking and Fullering in Riveted Joint?
In the previous article, we have discussed the Riveted joint method, Rivethead types, and the materials used for the Rivets according to the Indian Standards. In the Riveting methods, it is essential for some applications to make a leak-proof Riveted joint. Those applications are Boilers, air receiver tanks, and ship hulls. In order to achieve […]
