    There are many definitions around, this is what I have come up with.  Let me know your thoughts.

    Weldability – Ability to weld a metal without it cracking, meet required design strength and be adequately ductile.

    Only 1 month to IWS exams, anybody with any tips what to concentrate my study on please let me know.

    AS 2812 glossary of terms for welding clause 2.072
    Defines weldability as – The ability of a metal to be welded under given fabrication conditions in a specific weldment, and to perform satisfactorily in the intended service.

    Similar to your answer but a bit more generic.
