Most mound ceremonial centers are built near rivers and lakes. Mound builders lived in small communities of families led by elders. They made pilgrimages to the closest ceremonial centers to make offerings to their gods and to bury their loved ones. The ceremonial centers were built on timbers, often with a temple for sacrifices on top and crypts to bury the dead underneath.
There are many different factors that may determine welding sequence. Of course, a 1G weld is defined as a Flat (1) Groove (G) weld and the 1G is usually used when describing the position of welding any flat material such as bar, sheet, or plate. The thickness of the material may affect sequence.
The arc temperature may be upto 20,000 K. Although TIG welding produces the highest quality welds, it is a slow and expensive process. Metal inert gas welding process (MIG) is economical with consumable electrode fed at a predetermined rate. Plasma arc welding (PAW) has made substantial progress in utilising the high heat energy of an ionised gas stream.
