Description
- 12 weeks 480 hours
- Provided by AWA is all the basic tools to complete course.
- This course takes the skills that students demonstrated during the structural course and builds on them to create a competent combo pipe welder. With the ability to weld pipe comes the reward of the opportunity for higher wages. Some of the industries a pipe welder may be employed in are - steel mills, paper mills, food processing plants, power plants, refineries, chemical & pharmaceutical plants, oil & gas and many other areas.
- Students will perform welds in the 2G, 5G and 6G positions using GMAW, FCAW, SMAW and GTAW (which will be introduced in this course). After preforming quality welds in those positions, restrictors will be used on the same tests. Restrictors will limit welder mobility while improving skill as students move into simulations of in-the-field welding.
