Weld Toe Burr Grinding Procedure for Fatigue Life Extension
$1250 including GST
Do you need a weld toe burr grinding procedure for your next major project? Save yourself time and effort and leverage our expertise with this ready to use procedure.
This document provides a detailed and formal procedure for weld toe burr grinding, as per the IIW Recommendations on Methods for Improving the Fatigue Strength of Welded Joints.
This procedure has been written based on practical application experience and is designed for engineers, inspectors as well as welders who will be doing the toe burr grinding.
It addresses the practical problems that are commonly encountered when attempting to follow the IIW recommendations - primarily in relation to burr diameter recommendations. It also greatly expands on weld quality acceptance criteria and provides a simple guide for inspectors, based on the requirements of AS/NZS 1554 Part 5
On purchasing this document, you can also opt to receive it in an editable copy so that it can be custom formatted.

This guide provides a summary of key points based on AASHTO and research articles. Save yourself time and money and avoid the common pitfalls many make in attempting to use the Crack Arrest Hole (CAH) method by purchasing this technical guide.
This document provides detailed instructions regarding how to use the Crack Arrest Hole method to prevent fatigue crack growth to;
1) To extend asset life when it is not feasible to do an effective weld repair, or
2) As an interim solution until such time as a weld repair can be made
By learning how to correctly use the CAH method, you can keep your critical assets running with minimal downtime, minimal tooling required, and most importantly minimal risk of failure.
