About the Course

Based on the AWS A2.4:2012 Standard Symbols for Welding, Brazing, and Nondestructive Examination, this in-depth, online course employs audio narration, animated graphics, and interactive practice problems to make even the most complex welding symbols easy to understand and use. Understanding Welding Symbols is ideal for anyone involved in the design, fabrication, or inspection of welded, brazed, or soldered joints.

Learning Outcomes

By the end of this course you will be able to:

  • Discuss the basic elements and fundamental principles of object representation
  • Distinguish between the different lines used on a welding print
  • Indicate key elements of a welding drawing
  • Identify common joint types and edge preparations
  • Correlate welds with basic joint types
  • Distinguish between the different types of welds and their respective symbols
  • Label parts of a weld
  • Identify the location of a weld with respect to the joint using the elements included on a print
  • Construct a welding symbol in order to demonstrate an understanding of print interpretation
  • Explain the rules governing the use of the arrow, reference line, supplementary symbols, and combined welding symbols
  • Describe the function and appropriate
  • placement of supplementary data within a welding symbol
  • Describe a required braze by deciphering the parameters detailed within a brazing symbol
  • Determine the NDT method to be used by analyzing a nondestructive examination symbol
  • Analyze a combined welding and nondestructive examination symbol
