This course introduces basic elements of weld sketches, drawings, and welding symbols found in shop
drawings, welding prints, and basic welding forms. Emphasis is placed on interpreting sketch and symbol
information to fabricate a weldment. Destructive and non-destructive testing methods will be developed
through practicing examination, exploring their functionality and usability in the industry, and visually
inspecting and measuring welds to identify discontinuities and defects. At the conclusion of this course,
students will be able to utilize print reading, inspection, and testing procedures for weldments according
to drawings and standards used in the industry.
