WELDING AND FABRICATION The Welding Program is designed to meet the expanding needs of the many occupations that utilize welding and fabrication. The welding department provides a balanced course of study including both hands-on learning experiences, technical information and general education courses. Students have the option to choose a course of study that best fits their needs: (1) preparation for a career in welding with welding certification through the Washington Association of Building Officials and a certificate from Everett Community College; (2) an Associate in Technical Arts degree for those who want to achieve additional welding related goals; (3) welding related skills and information for advancement in their current occupation. Each student will need to purchase about $200 worth of equipment during the training period. In addition to the Student Core Learning Outcomes, the Program Specific Outcomes include: • Build skills toward industry standards. • Build skills toward State and National welding certifications. • Work as an effective and dependable team member as well as independently. • Demonstrate safe work habits that reflect concern and care for self, others and the environment. • Develop the skills necessary to secure employment.

Introduction to welding including safety, set-up and operation of tools and equipment common to fabrication shop, common metallurgical terms, alloying elements used in the production of carbon steels and their effects. Prerequisites: MFG T 100 or concurrent enrollment in MFG T 100, or instructor permission WELD 105 Introduction to Fabrication Planning
5
Welding with a focus on the preparation tasks needed for welding and fabrication. Starting and completing fabrication preparation tasks independently or in teams by focusing on soft skills in topics that include reading and writing material lists, using stock material inventories, economic material layout, measurements of fabrication dimensions, calculating linear lengths of straight and bent weldments, and calculating weights of fabrications, in both English and SI (metric) units. Example problems from fabrication classes Weld 210, 211, 212, 213 are included along with course capstone problems for fabricating a community playground project. Prerequisites: Eligibility for MATH 76 or equivalent OR instructor permission WELD 111 Basic Layout

Comprehensive overview of engineering drawings, lines and symbols as applied to the machine and fabrication trades rather than construction. Study of basic lines of a blueprint, three-view, isometric and orthographic drawings, and welding symbols and their interpretation. Course also includes identification of structural shapes, thread patterns and fasteners common to the metal trades industry. May be repeated one time for credit.
Metallurgical terms as applied to carbon steels. Properties of metals, phase changes, melting and solidification rates, weld bead metallurgy, and heat affected zones. Alloying elements, their effects on weld material and the distortion of materials due to thermal conditions. An introduction to flame straightening techniques completes the course.
Covers base material classification systems and identification systems including S.A.E. (Society of Automotive Engineers), A.S.T.M. (American Society of Testing and Materials), and A.W.S. (American Welding Society). Also includes the study of common welding processes, power supplies and the reading, writing and interpretation of welding procedures. May be repeated one time for credit.
