Abstract
The serious problem of distortion as caused by arc welding on large structures is discussed. An explanation is given not only as to the cause of the distortion but how the engineer can anticipate the direction it will take. Some of the available means of control are discussed, and “Paul Bunyan” size examples are given to illustrate what can be done to control distortion.
