3.00 Credits
Classroom study and lab exercises using the effects of heat upon welded fabrications. Heat effects are treated both as a problem for correction and as a tool used to form material. Covers various methodsto avoid and control distortion, which are applied in the constructionof projects. Prerequisite: WFT 121 or permission.
-
3.00 Credits
Incorporates lab exercises in the setup and use of power shear and punch to make weldment parts in a fabrication setting. Also explores alternative methods of cutting. Industry visitations are necessary to become acquainted with numeric control and production cutting devices and systems. Prerequisite: WFT 101, WFT 105 and WFT 106 or permission.
-
5.00 Credits
A project-oriented set of practical exercises that convey knowledge ofequipment along with theory of operation and applications of the Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW) proces (A.K.A. "TIG" and "Heliarc"). The high quality welds produced by this process are commonplace in pressure piping systems, aerospace products, and when using heat sensitive metals. The GTAW process provides both high quality and excellent appearance. Prerequisite: Experience with OAW ("gas welding")and at least one arc welding process or permission.
-
5.00 Credits
Project-oriented set of learning activities culminating in lab exercises involving the fabrication of aluminum weldments,either new fabrications or maintenance operations. Prerequisite: Experience with at least one arc welding process to include GMAW or GTAW or permissionRecommended: Experience with steel fabrications.
-
5.00 Credits
Covers the basics of welding inspection methods and criteria for determining compliance with defined standards. Presents systematic evaluation methods in the light of design purpose with the aim of distinguishing quality from acceptability. Includes a review of the applications of the more popular welding processes. Prerequisite: Experience with at least one arc welding proces to include GMAW or GTAW. ability to lift 50 lbs., or permission.
-
3.00 Credits
Exploration into the nature and purpose of welding performance certifications. An overview of popular certifications and tests. Examines standards for performance that ensure consistent product quality. Includes practical exercises in developing proper performancetechniques. Prerequisites: Fourth quarter standing or permission.
-
3.00 Credits
Examines the safe and effcient methods for handling, transporting and tracking materials, supplies and structures as found in a welding fabrication shop. Includes practice of the uses of rigging devices, leverage, and cranes. Covers methods of protective transport. Prerequisite: WFT 100, WFT 101 or permission.
-
5.00 Credits
Nearly one-half the welding done today can be categorized as maintenance and/or repair. WFT 132 explores a set of experiences with welding fabrication techniques used to maintain and repair structures that are worn, damaged or have missing parts. Presents identification and recognition of individual metal properties using a variety of materials. WFT 132 is recommended as a background for WFT 133 "Salvage & Reconstruction of Weldments." Prerequisite: Knowledge of hand and power tools; experience with blueprint reading, OAC, OAW, TB,SMAW and CAC-A; ability to lift 50 lbs., or permission.
-
5.00 Credits
Recommended sequel to WFT 132 (Maintenance and Repair). Covers methodsand techniques for the safe and efficient disassembly of welded fabrications and other mechanical structures. Determining the causes for material failure is emphasized as an essential part of repair. Prerequisite: WFT 132, knowledge of hand and power tools, blueprint reading experience, OAC, OAW, TB, SMAW, GMAW, FCAW and CAC-A, ability to lift 50lbs., or permission.
-
5.00 Credits
This course is a recommended sequel to WFT 132 (Maintenance and RepairWelding Techniques). Examines the uses of heat in fabrication for other than parts joining. Presents common heat treat operations and their applications. Such operations can enhance the usefulness and reliability of weld fabrications. Industry visitation(s) are a part ofthis course. Prerequisite: WFT 132, knowledge of hand and power tools,OAC, OAW, SMAW, GMAW, FCAW, and CAC-A. ability to lift 50lbs., or permission.
