Mechanical testing on welds is performed to determine mechanical properties of completed welds such as hardness or sometimes macro examination on the run-off pieces to reveal internal imperfections. There are several types of portable instruments to determine various mechanical and physical properties of welded joints.
Refer to the Mechanical testing section to obtain additional information.
