Principles of Welding Technology



Introduction:


This course provides an introduction to the principles of welding technology. The course describes the process of welding and how it affects welded materials and structures. It describes the electric circuits that are used to generate welding arcs, material properties, and the metallurgical and dimensional effects of welding on structures. The course also provides an overview of weld design concepts including efficient weld sizing and communication of weld and welding information through weld symbols on drawings.

Course Objectives:


By the end of this course, delegates will be able to:

 

  • Explain how to use and application of common welding processes 
  • Describe basic weld design concepts, such as weld size determination and communication through weld and welding symbols on drawings
  • Explain how welding affects various welded materials, including metallurgical and dimensional changes 
  • Describe the advantages and disadvantages of various arc-welding processes 
  • Identify basic electric circuits that are used to accomplish arc welding
  • Identify weld inspection techniques, including non-destructive examination
  • Identify common problems with welding processes and explain how to troubleshoot them

Who Should Attend?


Welders I & II, Fabricators, Welding Metallurgy Technicians, Welding Supervisors, Welding Sales/Service Technicians, Foreman Mechanical Maintenance, Engineering Technicians, Pipefitters, Weld Inspectors, Production Welders, Managers, Petroleum Engineers, Senior Welders and Operators, Production and Maintenance Staff, Inspectors, anyone who works with welding, Inspection Engineers, Mechanical Engineers, Electrical Engineers, NDT Personnel, Quality Assurance Personnel, Auditors, Testing Laboratory Personnel, and Maintenance Personnel, Qualifying Welders, Brazers and Operators, Engineers, Testing Lab Technologists and Technicians, Inspectors, Equipment Designers, New Technologists, engineers, managers and quality personnel who wish to understand the fundamental principles of welding to control and troubleshoot welding processes, reduce operating cost and improve the quality of their product.
