Part A is compulsory. Answer any one full question from each unit of Part B.

Part A

125 marks
a

What is the role of clay in moulding sand?

2 marks

Answer

Clay acts as the primary binder in moulding sand. Its role is to provide the necessary cohesive strength to the sand grains, allowing the mould to retain its shape and withstand the pressure of molten metal during pouring.
b

Why is it important to provide a means of venting gases from the mold cavity?

3 marks

Answer

Venting is critical to allow the escape of gases and steam generated by the moisture in the sand and the binders when they come into contact with molten metal. If these gases are trapped, they cause porosity, blowholes, and surface defects in the casting, which significantly weaken the structural integrity of the final component.
c

Explain the principle of arc welding.
