2.00 Credits
Provides the student with opportunity to develop skills in joint preparation for butt weld carbon steel pipe. Students will cut pipe using oxy-fuel equipment utilizing both bevel and straight cuts. Field fabrication of 90 degree branch connections of both equal and unequal pipe sizes using carbon steel pipe, calculating pipe lengths between fittings for 90 degree offsets, 45 degree offsets, and 45 degree rolling offsets, and installing the field fabricated fittings into 90 degree offset, and 45 degree rolling offset runs will be included. Students will also have the opportunity to develop skills in preparing field sketches, planning jobs by using a bill of materials, and systematically recording data to make logical calculations for solving piping offsets. Prerequisite: FAB 203
-
2.00 Credits
Provides the student with the opportunity to develop skills in the use of applied trigonometry for solving pipe fabrication problems and fabricating complex pipe fittings for a variety of applications. The student will also develop skills using the scientific calculator for solving advanced problems in trigonometry related to the pipe fitting trade. Prerequisite: FAB 205
-
2.00 Credits
Offers the student the opportunity to develop skills in template development for producing field-fabricated pipefittings. Basic line convention techniques are introduced and students utilize these techniques to produce full-scale drawings of fittings commonly fabricated on job sites. These drawings are transformed into templates from which field fabrications are produced by the students. Skill development progresses from three and four inch carbon steel pipe to larger diameter thin wall stainless steel pipe. Skill development is field sketching is also encouraged through a requirement to provide sketches and calculations for every project produced during the second semester of the pipe fabrication concentration. Prerequisite: FAB 207
-
2.00 Credits
Provides the student with opportunity to develop skills in calculating, laying out, and performing angles cut on the end of pipes. There will also be opportunity to develop skills in calculating, fabrication, and installing equal spread welded offsets, 45 degree and 90 degree branch connections, and true wye connections using both references and contour markers. Students will also begin an Independent study in the Boiler Operators Workbook. Prerequisite: FAB 207
-
2.00 Credits
Provides the student with the opportunity to develop skills in identifying various types of materials, equipment, hardware for the installation of piping systems above ground. The student will also be given the opportunity to take field runs, make tie-ins, and properly install pipe and equipment as applied to industrial applications. The pipe runs in this module will include mitered turns of various angles that have been introduced in previous modules. Assignments in the Boiler Operators Workbook will continue in this module to coincide with above ground pipe fabrication and prepare for the next module in Above Ground Pipe Installations II. Prerequisite: FAB 211
-
2.00 Credits
Provides the student with continued opportunity to develop skills in making above ground field runs utilizing complex calculations in applied trigonometry. These runs will include double rolling offsets of odd angle degrees. The student will also be challenged with complex critical thinking problems to solve from sketches and blueprints. Several mock-up-piping runs will be assigned for students to solve with the collaboration of teamwork and individual resourcefulness. Field routing of complex pipe runs will incorporate practical application of mathematics for solving advanced pipefitting problems. The opportunity to fabricate stainless steel pipefittings from patterns the students produce will also be included in this course. The student will also complete the independent study in the Boiler Operator's Workbook. Prerequisite: FAB 213
-

-
3.00 Credits
This course is a basic study of fire inspecting and code enforcement principles. Students will learn the basics of inspections, the identification of common hazards, the basics of special inspections, and the use of NFPA 101 Life Safety Codes and NFPA 1 National Fire Prevention Code. (3 lec)
-
3.00 Credits
This course is designed to acquaint students with the various extinguishing agents and with engineering them into fire protection systems, including portable extinguishers, sprinkler systems, detection systems, and fire alarm systems. (3 lec)
-
3.00 Credits
A study of building methods and design, as related to fire protection. Included in the course of study are elementary blueprint-reading, building materials, types of construction, fire protection features, building codes, fire effects of buildings and evaluation of fire damage. (3 lec)
