Understanding Weld Porosity Defects by rohan is a document available to read on EtoBox.

Porosity is a defect caused by gases becoming trapped in the weld pool as it solidifies. Different types of porosity include distributed, surface breaking, and wormhole porosity. Porosity can be caused by factors like poor gas shielding, moisture, coatings on the workpiece, and rapid solidification. Other weld defects discussed include slag inclusions, lack of root fusion, cracking, excess/insufficient weld metal, undercut/overlap, misalignment, incomplete fill, and poor fit-up. Proper joint preparation and
