Welding is joining pieces of metal (or
nonmetal) at faces rendered plastic or liquid
by heat or pressure (or both). The principal
processes today are gas and arc welding, in
which the heat from a gas flame or an
electric arc melts the faces to be joined.
Additional `filler metal' is usually added to
the joint.
