What You Learn in Welding School
During the course of study in our welding school Maryland program, you will gain valuable work experience in and on the following;
Course Outline
Welding Math
The material covered in this math course is representative of the mathematics needed in the welding industry. Topics included are: direct measure, English-Metric systems, perimeters, angular measures, areas, volumes and mass (weight) measure.
Oxy-fuel Cutting
An introduction to the oxy-fuel practice of cutting mild steel. Cutting consists of practice at straight cuts made with hand torches in flat, horizontal and vertical positions, as well as shape cutting in these positions, straight and bevel cuts made with track burner.
Stick Welding
This course consists of a study of welding equipment, their uses and safe operation. Students are given practical and theoretical instruction in the use of electric arc welders. Personal safety is a foremost study in this course, including clothing, eye, hearing and body protection, as well as protecting others.
TIG Plate Welding
In this course students will study, both theoretical and practical, the equipment necessary to make welds on plate using the Gas Tungsten Arc Welding process. A variety of joints will be done in all positions on both mild and stainless steel.
Flux Core Plate & Pipe Welding
In this course students will study Flux Cored Arc Welding, both gas shielded and self shielded on plate then pipe. A variety of joints will be done in all positions with a combination of inert and reactive gasses.
MIG/TIG Nonferrous Welding
In this course students with study both the practical and theoretical aspects of Gas Metal Arc and Gas Tungsten Arc Welding of aluminum on both plate and pipe. This course focuses on Gas Tungsten Arc Welding of both plate and pipe on stainless steel. The hands on portion is complimented by the theory behind the identification of the different types and how to weld them without losing their beneficial qualities.
Plasma Carbon Arc Cutting
An introduction to plasma arc cutting, and air carbon arc cutting and gouging on ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Plasma cutting of shapes and straight cuts as well as beveling in various positions. Air Carbon Arc Gouging & Beveling of plate is practiced as well as weld metal removal.
MIG Plate Welding
In this course, the student will be required to complete a variety of joints including filling gaps with the Gas Metal Arc Welding process in all positions. The theory includes the type of equipment necessary, wire types, and diameters along with the vast combinations of shielding gasses and mixes required for the various metal transfer methods.
MIG/TIG Pipe Welding
In this course, the student will learn to weld pipe using the MIG, Flux core, self-shielded and TIG welding processes. Students will practice at the fillet welding and groove welding of pipe and tubing on carbon steel, aluminum and stainless steel.
Welding Print reading
In this course, the students will learn all the essentials to be able to read and work off of Blueprints. Students will learn all 17 main weld symbols, all variations and the dimensioning associated with the Blueprint Symbols.
Welding Fabrication
In this course, the student will learn to Fabricate off of prints, taught in conjunction with W206- Welding Print reading, the student will become proficient in working from print to work and work to print, emphasis is on accuracy of the work.
