Abstract

The movement and acceleration are part of the attraction of amusement parks so their structures are subject to cyclical loads.

This dynamic solicitation gives rise to the appearance and growth of cracks. The repair of this type of mediating anomalies historically in the industry have associated a fear mostly caused by ignorance of the proper processes. This article summarizes the steps involved in this repair procedure, as they are the inspection and detection given the nature of the defect, the considerations related to the variables involved in the welding procedure, the inspection after the repair and the validation, the reinjection and the report.

This article is intended to present in an abbreviated manner the reader interested in the integrity of mechanical attractions, guidelines and General recommendations for repairing steel structures by welding.
