13 courses with the subject WELD, 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.
Topics of study include Oxyacetylene cutting of circles, bevel edges, straight cuts, and free-hand pipe beveling. Flame-cutting equipment techniques will be taught using a hand-held cutting torch, a straight-line track burner, and a coordinate-shape cutter.
This course covers the basic theories of DC-shielded metal arc welding. Students will gain an understanding of proper welding electrode selection, applicable welding codes, machine setup and maintenance, and safe practices associated with shop practices. The welding of ferrous metals in multiple positions in a T-joint configuration will be practiced with an emphasis on visual and destructive testing methods.
The student will learn the processes and principles of GMAW and FCAW. The student will be able to differentiate between short-circuit and spray-arc transfer and learn the different types of electrode wires and shielding gases used in GMAW and FCAW. The student will use short-circuit, dual shield, and flux-cored processes for welding tee joints and V-groove butt joints on mild steel and aluminum.
The student will learn the techniques necessary to make code-quality FCA welds on pthe ipe in all positions using GMAW root and hot passes and FCAW on the remaining fill and cap. Such welds will be made on 6” schedule 80 pipe or larger. E70-T1 or equivalent will be used as the filler metal with a 75/25 Argon/CO2 shielding gas.
The student will learn the processes, principles, and equipment involved in Gas Tungsten Arc Welding. The student should be able to discuss electrical safety in GTAW, how to properly handle welding and cooling systems, and solve problems concerning GTAW. Topics of study include GTAW welding on carbon steel, stainless steel, and aluminum plates using 16 gauge and 3/8” mild steel plates.
The student will learn to weld open Single V-groove butt joints in the flat, horizontal, vertical-up, and overhead positions with and without backing strips. Students will use E-6010 welding electrodes for root beads and E-7018 welding electrodes for fill and cap. Students will learn to prepare bend test specimens for destructive testing and be given an opportunity to certify upon completion of this course.
This course is designed to provide skills and knowledge for structural steel and some pipe layouts. Students will draft their projects and learn and identify welding and drafting symbols. Students will also learn to record time spent on a project as well as the total cost of the project. Taught in Outreach only.
This self-paced course is offered all semesters as both a day and an evening class, and students employed in shift work may attend either session. Topics of study include welding to specifications V-groove joints on schedule 80 pipe in the 2G, 5G, and 6G positions. The SMAW process will be used, and E-6010 will be used on the roots, and E-7018 will be used on all filler passes. All welding in this block will be done using the vertical up and horizontal up methods. All welds will be tested with the destructive bend tester, and the certification tests may also be radiographed.
The student will weld to specifications V-groove butt joints in the 2G, 5G vertical-down, and 6G vertical-down positions. The E-6010 electrode will be used for the root pass and, when required, for the hot pass. E-7010, or 70(E-8010), will be used for the fill and cap passes. Performance tests in this course will be conducted to the specifications of the American Petroleum Institute’s 1104 code procedures.
The student will learn to calculate run, set, and travel for pipe runs, rolling offsets, two-piece parallel offsets, and other pipe run configurations. The student will learn to use the framing square, the pipe wrap-around, two-hole pins, and other pipe fitting tools to layout, fit up, and tack weld pipe assemblies. The student will use
The purpose of this course is to give students a basic understanding of welding carbon and stainless 6” pipe in the 2G, 5G, and 6G pipe positions. Students will utilize the GTAW for root and hot passes and remaining passes with SMAW. Destructive root and face bends will be conducted and evaluated for compliance with American Welding Society of Mechanical Engineers specifications.
The purpose of this course is to give the student a basic understanding of weld inspection procedures, welding codes and standards, destructive and non-destructive inspection techniques, and the preparation of supporting documents.
This course is an introduction to the proper techniques and practices needed to meet the requirements of Weld Certification Testing.
