Weldability of Materials

Catalog description

This course examines the characteristics of weldable materials and their properties that affect weldability: “the capacity of a material to be welded under the imposed fabrication conditions into a specific, suitably designed structure and to perform satisfactorily in the intended service” (AWS A3.0). Students gain the theoretical and technical knowledge needed to research and develop preliminary welding procedures for joining the major weldable materials. Prerequisite(s): Completion of or currently enrollment in WELDTC-102.
