BASIC WELDING
The course is designed to offer a comprehensive understanding of welding by establishing a strong foundation in the core principles, techniques, and methodologies. Additionally, it enriches the learning experience through a series of practical, hands-on workshops and exercises.
Curriculum
- Recognize and understand welding material symbols and basic materials.
- Calculate suitable welding parameters.
- Read and comprehend welding procedures applied in real manufacturing.
- Present the principles of construction and operation of welding equipment.
- Explain welding joint symbols and welding methods on technical drawings.
- Present and explain welding procedures, select welding materials, and apply them in real production.
- Be aware of fire prevention, explosion prevention, and emergency response measures in case of accidents.
- Able to perform welds in various positions according to technical requirements.
- Operate and adjust welding parameters on SMAW welding machines.
- Connect SMAW welding equipment.
- Select suitable welding parameters for different SMAW welding methods.
- Fabricate weldments according to technical drawing requirements using manual gas cutting, or oxy-fuel cutting machines.
- Repair faulty welds, identify causes, and implement corrective or preventive measures.
- Perform welding using Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) methods, with structures ranging from simple to complex, including fillet welds (1F - 3F), groove welds (1G - 3G), and pipe welds (1G, 2G, 5G) for common carbon steels, meeting the required quality standards specified in the technical drawings.
- Work effectively in both team and independent settings.
- Handle technical challenges encountered during practical welding.
- Maintain welding equipment, tools, and adhere to fire prevention measures in the welding profession.
