We will spend approximately 4 hours of classroom instruction/guest speakers and the rest in the lab. Activities include flat, out of position, and multi-pass welds. Projects shared: chipping hammer, Folding shovel, and welding joint examples. Discussions include safety, power supplies, and set-up of the equipment. Trainees will gain experience with a variety of welding machines, curriculum and project ideas to take home to their classrooms.
