Abstract: A method of welding plate joints during construction or repair of a structure. The method includes the steps of: (a) positioning a series of plates forming a structure component next to one another to form a series of joints for welding; (b) positioning a welding system on or adjacent to the series of plates, the welding system including a platform with an articulating welding arm positioned thereon, wherein the articulating arm comprises a welding head and a joint sensor; (c) directing the articulating arm with a controller to detect a first joint with the joint sensor; (d) beginning to weld the first joint; (e) adjusting the position of the welding head to track the weld joint based on data from the joint sensor; and (f) repositioning the articulating arm and positioning the welding head adjacent a second weld joint to begin welding the second joint.

Abstract: A tool for operatively coupling a drive mechanism to a driven component is provided. The drive mechanism includes a drive shaft. The tool includes at least two members. Each member includes an inner surface forming an inner lip extending along a first axial edge of each member. The inner lip is positioned within a groove defined within the drive shaft. Each member also includes an outer surface and a channel defined within the outer surface. The outer surface is tapered between the channel and the first axial edge. The tool further includes at least one seal removably coupled to the at least two members. The at least one seal is configured to retain the at least two members about the drive shaft.
