Description
For specialized short courses on S.M.A.W. or as one of several books used in introductory welding courses.
Finely focused on the fundamentals of state-of-the-art shielded metal arc welding, this innovative text/lab manual offers a fresh, modern approach to both content and skills. Written by a veteran teacher/welder, it is laid out in an easy-to-understand, step-by-step modular format and features a careful mix of traditional and "fun" questions and activities that combine welding, math, and writing skills, as well as competency-based welding exercises - many designed according to the AWS Structural Welding Code-Steel D.1.1. Students thus not only develop the skills to do quality welding safely, but to pass standard job-qualifying welding tests.
