WLD2270

Advanced study and practice of the gas tungsten arc welding process are emphasized. Advanced joint designs are mastered on carbon steel, aluminum, and stainless steel. A required American Welding Society Workmanship sample will be fabricated and welded. Students will also weld GTAW on pipe according to ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) procedures. Theory and practice of GTAW on ferrous and non-ferrous metals in all positions will be covered. Upon completion, students should be able to perform GTAW welds with prescribed electrodes and filler materials on various joint geometries. Prerequisite: WLD 1370; Eligibility: MAT 1590. J spring.
