Welding and Joining Processes Technical Group (TG2)

Almost every fabricated item contains one or more joints made by a variety of joining processes. The scope of TG2 scope has been extended to cover not only all of the arc, power beam, resistance and solid phase welding processes but also brazing, soldering and adhesive bonding.

The events offered by TG2 include application and control of the welding and joining processes, welding and joining consumables, welding and joining as practised in the power generation, oil and gas, process plant, structural steel and transport industries; industrial productivity, automation and robotics; health and safety; computer software; welding applications; management and quality assurance systems; national and international standards; quality control and acceptance criteria.
