Welding
WELD 1101 cr-0.5
Introduction to Welding
This course is an introduction to the welder training program in
the province of British Columbia. It also familiarizes the student
with the basic hand and power tools and the application of
WHMIS regulations and procedures in the welding trade.
WELD 1102 cr-2
Oxy-fuel Gas Cutting
Oxy-fuel process is widely used for the cutting of mild and low
carbon steels. WELD 1102 teaches the student to cut plate and
pipe smoothly and accurately with hand-held torches and
machines.
This course trains the student in the skills of fusion welding,
brazing and braze welding of mild steel. These skills will lead to
mastery of more advanced welding techniques. Safety is
emphasized in this introductory course.
Shielded metal arc welding is widely used in industry. One of the
principal courses in Level C training, WELD 1104 covers
equipment, electrodes, techniques and safety.
Air carbon arc cutting is a fast, effective and popular method in
industry for the removal of metals of all kinds. This course will
enable the student to work safely and efficiently with both air
carbon arc and plasma arc equipment.
Prerequisites: WELD 1102
Corequisites: WELD 1104, WELD 1202
WELD 1106 cr-10
Gas Metal Arc and Flux Core Arc Welding I
Gas metal arc and flux-cored arc welding (GMAW and FCAW) are
closely related, continuous wire-feed processes widely used in
industry. WELD 1106 trains the student in procedures and
applications using a variety of metals and joints.
Prerequisites: WELD 1104, WELD 1105, WELD 1202
Corequisites: WELD 1203
WELD 1107 cr-9
Shielded Metal Arc Welding II
This course reviews and expands upon the shielded metal arc
welding skills acquired in Level C training (WELD 1104). This
course is compulsory for Level B Registration.
Prerequisites: Level C
WELD 1108 cr-3
Gas Metal Arc Welding II
This course reviews and further develops the gas metal arc welding
techniques acquired in Level C training (WELD 1106). The student
welds steel and aluminum in a variety of positions and with a full
range of shielding gases. WELD 1108 develops the skills required
in the welding of plate and pipe.
Prerequisites: LEVEL C
WELD 1109 cr-3
Flux Cored Arc Welding II
This course advances the student's skill in flux-cored arc welding
of fillet and groove welds and teaches the techniques of hard-
surfacing steel.
Prerequisites: Level C
WELD 1110 cr-3
Gas Tungsten Arc Welding
Gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW) is the most challenging and
versatile of all the welding processes. WELD 1110 introduces
students to the equipment, techniques and applications of this skill.
Prerequisites: Level C
WELD 1201 cr-.50
Material Handling
Welders require a broad knowledge of materials handling
procedures. WELD 1201 ranges from a study of ropes wire ropes,
chains and a variety of rigging hardware to lifting and pulling
equipment, manual and electrical hoists and cranes.
Prerequisites: WELD 1101
Corequisites: WELD 1103
WELD 1202 cr-3
Blueprint Reading I
This course is designed for the welder who has no experience in
drafting. From simple sketches the course advances to
dimensioned drawings and the interpretation of structural
drawings. The welder's special needs are emphasized throughout.
There is a mathematics module to refresh skills in practical
calculation.
Prerequisites: WELD 1102
Corequisites: WELD 1104, WELD 1105
WELD 1203 cr-1
Metallurgy I
This is an informational course on the nature of metals. Physical
properties, manufacture and ultimate applications of ferrous and
non-ferrous metals are the subjects of this one week course.
Prerequisites: WELD 1104, WELD 1105, WELD 1202
Corequisites: WELD 1106
WELD 1204 cr-1
Welding Quality Control and Inspection Procedures
This course surveys the tests employed in industry to ensure welds
of high quality. WELD 1204 is a theory course covering the
destructive and non-destructive tests currently in common
industrial use.
Prerequisites: Level C
WELD 1205 cr-1
Welding Codes, Standards and Specifications
Welding codes, standards and specifications are guarantees of
public safety and product quality. WELD 1205 provides the
student with an understanding of the origins, purposes and
enforcement of regulations and the way they will affect his work
and career development.
Prerequisites: Level C
WELD 1206 cr-1
Blueprint Reading II
WELD 1206 trains the welder to read and interpret piping
drawings. As well as recognizing the manufactured components
and their symbols the student learns to design templates for the
construction of elbows and tees.
Prerequisites: Level C
WELD 1207 cr-1
Welding Metallurgy II
This is a metallurgy theory course that provides the Level B
welding student with knowledge of the grain structure of metals
and the effects of alloy content and heat treatment on the
weldability of steel and aluminum.
