Note : Figure 34 shows the proper way to round the corners of the patches,using a radius of about 54. In preparing all of the joints, use a bevel of about45° and leave the vee open about 3/16 at the bottom, as shown in Figure 35. In using the diamond patch of Figure 36, the welding should be done inthe same way as that described for the triangular patches. Expansion must beprovided for by the proper preheating and reheating at the ends of the line ofweld.
