WELD* 1760 - Advanced Shielded Metal Arc Weld

Students will learn equipment and setup, electrodes and electrode selection in Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) and Submerged Arc Welding (SAW). Course training will utilize the American Welding Society (AWS) standards of acceptability to develop the manual skills necessary to produce good quality single and multiple pass welds in all positions using larger diameter electrodes of the low hydrogen, non-low hydrogen filler metals commonly used in industry to the structural steel welding code. Joints welded will simulate butt-beam to beam, beam to column splicing, and heavy equipment welding.
