COURSE OVERVIEW

 This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises.  Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators. 

 

The course is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of welding and brazing in accordance with ASME Section IX. It covers the general requirements of welding, non-destructive examination, welding procedure and welding performance qualifications as well as welding data that includes variables, techniques, base metals groupings, F-numbers, weld metal chemical composition and specimens. 

 

The course comply with the requirements of ASME Section IX, Welding and Brazing Qualifications. Participants will gain a working knowledge of ASME Section IX. A review of the welding processes and variables, and a review of basic welding metallurgy will be conducted in order to provide all participants with sufficient background in welding technology to interpret and understand Section IX. The mechanics of using Section IX and how to address its requirements will be explained in a simple, straightforward manner. 

 

 

Emphasis will be placed on writing welding procedures so that they contribute positively to the manufacturing process and on qualifying procedures in a costeffective manner. The requirements for welders, brazers and operators will be examined with particular emphasis on minimizing the cost and maximizing the usefulness of qualifications. Time will be provided to address individual participant’s problems and concerns.
