Fundamentals of Welding Engineering (AWS/ASME)

Introduction:

The course covers the basic science and practical application of the most commonly utilized welding processes along with other essential topics such as: welding terminology, weld design, welding safety, electrical theory, the weldability of metals, and welding quality control. This course is designed for the individual that needs to expand the candidates’ 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.

To introduce the various welding and cutting processes, this course gives an understanding of AWS filler metals specifications, types of welding flaws, related ASME Section V requirements for NDE, and the QA systems necessary for welder performance qualification. This course is also an excellent learning experience for people seeking a general knowledge in welding and related NDE.

Course Objectives:

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

· Learn about the fundamentals of welding engineering conforming to AWS and ASME standards and codes

Who Should Attend?

Inspectors, welders, welding supervisors, quality control personnel, technologists, and engineers involved with welding for new fabrication, repairs, maintenance, and inspection for pressure vessel or piping.TOPICS
