Welding & Structural Integrity (WSI)

Welding & Structural Integrity

Code: WSI

This is a 3-day training program comprising of theory and practical class session. Participants will expose to the understanding the proper skills and workmanship required to achieve the quality expectation. Problem-solving skills including critical evaluation, allowing to choose the proper technical and economical solutions when applying welding and related technologies, in complex and unpredictable conditions. Learn the difference between AWS A2.4 and ISO 2553 welding symbol in drawings. Participants will able to describe the objectives and limitations of the most common destructive and non-destructive testing at the end of program.

Course Objectives
  • Welding variables (process, equipment and consumables) and recognize its importance in the properties of materials and compliance to code/standard.
  • How residual stresses and distortion in welded steel structures occur and methods for prevention.
  • Deformation and fracture phenomena in material processing and in-service performance.
  • Material properties of steel to produce a sound weld and common weld process crack mechanism (characteristics, causes and avoidance).
  • Steel material, benefit from heat treatments, particularly after welding or manufacturing processes.
  • Origination of defective weld and how repairs are carried out – important steps for reclamation of the outcome.
