Course Description
Includes metal fabrication focusing on blueprint interpretation, proper fit techniques, length and width allowances, welding processes, utilization of jigs and fixtures, and performance evaluation.
Course learning outcomes
1. Demonstrate safe practices in the MATC industrial fabrication lab.
2. Read and interpret blueprints, drawings, and sketches, including welding symbols, to fabricate a product in accordance with the proper code, standard, or engineering document.
3. Design and implement the jigs and fixtures needed to fabricate the products documented in blueprints, drawings, or sketches.
4. Manufacture parts and basic assemblies, from specified stock, to proper size and fit while meeting the the proper code, standard or engineering specifications.
5. Create documentation to demonstrate compliance with the welding procedures specified, or implied, in the blueprints, drawings, sketches, or fabrication documents.
6. Apply and interpret a performance qualification test of the product while adhering to the written documentation set forth within the applicable code, standard or engineering document.
