    Description
    This is a fundamental class dealing with pipe welding in the 6G position using the shielded metal arc welding (SMAW) process. Joint designs will be performed using the gas metal arc welding (GMAW), and the gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) process in preparation for welding root passes on pipe. Welding symbols are presented and reviewed in order to enable students to in-terpret welding blueprints. This is the third of a four- course sequence to prepare students for power plant and field pipe welding. American Welding Society (AWS) qualifications in GTAW, GMAW, and flux core arc welding (FCAW) will be prepared and completed. This course has been approved for hybrid delivery. Repeatable as required for qualification by the AWS D1.1 Section 4 Period of Effectiveness. (Instructor Authorization Required for Course Repetition.)
