At the completion of this course, the student will be able to explain how to perform shielded metal arc welding on carbon steel plate and carbon steel pipe. The student will also be able to explain what the various welding positions are, their orientations, and the processes for welding in various positions. In addition, the student will be able to: explain the proper usage of polarities (D.C. power) and current flow in electric arc welding with covered electrodes; demonstrate the setup of electric arc welding equipment for S.M.A.W. welding in both polarities on steel plate; match electric arc welding filler metals to their application positions; and explain the setup of gas tungsten arc welding equipment for straight polarity welding with argon shielding gas.
