Abstract
The properties of a new material, namely foam aluminium are given. The areas of its rational use are determined. Concrete examples are cited to show the possibility, in principle, of application of foam aluminium in welded structures, when various welding procedures are used.
Keywords: arc welding, electron beam welding, braze-welding, foam aluminium, foam materials, sheets, plates, properties of joints, sound-proofness, heat stability
