Course overview:
Much time and money
is lost by poor understanding of joint designs and
the subsequent application of weld symbols on drawings.
This course, which has a bias towards practical case
studies, is specifically aimed at all levels of design
personnel who need to be able to initially deduce a
suitable joint design and apply the correct weld symbols
to drawings for shop floor personnel who also need
to be able to interpret their meaning. The course main
aim is to give the course member an in- depth look
at specifying weld joint design requirements and the
application by weld symbols.
Course content:
Joint designs in welding – terminology; weldology
requirements; factors that influence correct joint
design for a given application; features of a welded
joint and requirements for different welding processes;
weld symbol standards (BS EN ISO AWS); The basic rules
of weld symbol standards; Case studies in the application
of joint designs and weld symbols; advanced details
of joint designs and weld symbols; reading weld symbols;
interpretation of weld symbols; case studies on the
correct deduction, interpretation and application.
