safety and health risks of 9% Ni steel vertical weld by shielded manual arc welding for large LNG tank are mainly discussed. Through analysis and field construction experience
it is found that the causes of these hidden dangers are poor replicability of welding procedure
manual operation of welder
carbon arc gouging back chipping
extensive grinding
inadequate supervision
difficulty of high altitude operation
etc. It is suggested that using an efficient automatic AC GTAW welding procedure to replace the traditional shield manual arc welding. This suggested welding procedure has the characteristics of high quality
