Welding Metallurgy

Course Overview

This is a lecture and problem solving course dealing with the metallurgical aspects of welding. We will present many technical aspects of materials joining.

Emphasis will be placed on arc welding, the fundamentals of welding technology, welding metallurgy, inspection and quality of welds and welding codes and specifications.

This training course is designed to give a general but comprehensive picture of the principal arc welding processes so that selection can be made from a knowledge of the advantages and limitations of each process.
