4 courses with the subject WLD, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
WLD 101PRINCIPLES OF WELDING TECHNOLOGY4
This course provides an introduction to welding technology with an emphasis on developing welding safety habits for identifying health concerns and potential hazards; wearing of personal protection equipment, safety inspection of welding equipment, equipment repair and maintenance; and adhering to laboratory principles and rules. Additionally, students will be introduced to the welding certification requirements and practice oxy-fuel, plasma arc, and carbon arc- cutting processes.
WLD 105WELDING SYMBOL INTERPRETATION AND INSPECTION4
This course introduces basic elements of weld sketches, drawings, and welding symbols found in shop drawings, welding prints, and basic welding forms. Emphasis is placed on interpreting sketch and symbol information to fabricate a well- meant. Destructive and non- destructive testing methods will be developed through practicing examination, exploring their functionality and usability in the industry, and visually inspecting and measuring welds to identify discontinuities and defects. At the conclusion of this course, students will be able to utilize print reading, inspection, and testing procedures for weldments according to drawings and standards used in the industry.
This course develops the concepts and techniques involved with the gas metal arc-welding process, safety hazards and proper procedures, equipment set up, electrical theory and machine selection, maintenance and repair, and qualification testing. Students will develop the production of quality groove and fillet welds in the 1G, 2G, and 3G; 1F, 2F, and 3F positions and students will build practical experience in the laboratory where a variety of welding techniques will be practiced and reinforced through self and peer inspection. Additionally, students will be introduced to production of groove and fillet welds in the 4G and 4F positions and welds utilizing the GMAW spray transfer in a variety of positions.
This course covers concepts and techniques involved with the gas tungsten arc welding process with a focus on the production of quality groove and fillet welds on austenitic stainless steel in the 1G, 2G, 3G, 1F, 2F, and 3F positions and 1G, 2G, 1F, and 2F positions on aluminum. Additionally, this course covers fundamental concepts such as safety hazards and proper procedures, equipment assembly, electrical theory and machine selection, maintenance and repair, safety testing, electrode selection and preparation.
