Understanding electrode consumption is essential for accurate welding cost estimation and material planning. In this video, we break down the basics of electrode consumption calculation using a Single V-Groove weld example. You’ll learn how weld geometry, base metal thickness, bevel angle, root gap, reinforcement, weld length, density, and deposition efficiency affect the final electrode requirement. This step-by-step explanation is perfect for welding engineers, supervisors, students, and fabri
