Notice: Enrollment closes up to 10 days in advance of when the course begins in order to accommodate shipping of course materials to learners.

This course is designed for the individual that needs to expand his/her core competence on the subject of welding. Designers, inspectors, managers, or welders with a need to understand the fundamentals of welding benefit from the practical aspects of welding technology offered here.

This course employs in-class exercises to reinforce class lectures on the subjects of welding and NDE symbols, carbon equivalence, A-numbers, strength of welds, joint details, welding procedures, selection of filler metals, and preheat.

Participants should bring a calculator and several pencils or a mechanical pencil to class.

Course Materials (Included in the price of the course)
A hard copy of the course presentation and a copy of AWS A3.0 Standard Welding Terms will be shipped to each attendee. We are only shipping materials to addresses within North America. We cannot provide digital access to the materials for this course.

Recommended Course Materials
Modern Welding Technology, 6^th Edition, written by Howard B. Cary and Scott Helzer.

You Will Learn to:

Explain welding terms and definitions
Specify various weld types and nondestructive testing using standard AWS welding symbols
Explain basic ferrous welding metallurgy
Describe post weld heat treatments, residual stresses, and distortion control
Evaluate welding processes typically used to fabricate pressure vessels and piping systems
Clarify the interrelationship between AWS, ASME, and API codes and standards as they relate to pressure vessels, piping systems, and related facilities
Explain welding procedure and performance qualification documentation and methodology applicable to pressure vessels and piping systems.
Identify common weld defects, causes, and corrective actions
Identify major considerations when designing a weld
Identify common NDT used to examine welds
