Facing up the base plates

Facing up the base plates

Due to their size and weight it is impossible to weld the base plates from both sides instead they are joined using a "V" weld, this involves facing up the edges of the base plates to an angle in such a way that they form a "V" at the joint of the plates. This "V" is then filled with a number of root welds and then a final capping weld to finish off with.
