SYNOPSIS

Welding activities play a vital role during the construction phase especially in the marine and oil and gas industry, be it new construction, refurbishment or conversion projects. This course gives the essence of welding knowledge in the engineering & construction, especially suitable for engineers who intend to gain a fundamental but solid grounding on welding inspection. You will learn the structured and integrated welding technology, welding process, welding defects, duties of inspection engineers at site, tools and techniques that are applicable to managing the welding activities, welding symbols and etc. The course contents are closely referenced to CSWIP course note for welding inspector course. This two-day intensive course is both practical and interactive, supplemented with useful course note, real-life case studies and working examples.

BENEFITS

•    Understand the relevant of welding technology related to steel fabrications
•    Able to recognize characteristics of commonly used welding processes in relation to quality control
•    Able to interpret drawing instructions and welding symbols to ensure that specifications are met
•    Understand the application of welding consumables for specific applications and consumable handling
•    Aware of the engineering codes and standards related to welding and inspection requirements
•    Able to identify various weld imperfections (defects)
•    Understand factors which influence the quality of fusion welds in steels
•    Able to carry out visual inspection of welds, report on them and assess their compliance with specified acceptance criteria

WHO COULD BENEFIT FROM THE COURSE

All engineers who need basic training in welding inspection; Inspectors / QA & QC Inspectors & Engineers / Engineers / Inspection Engineers who undertake the visual examination of welded joints or involve in construction projects; Quality Control / Quality Assurance staff associated with welding and construction; Government and Non-government officers; Anyone responsible for or involved in construction project.
