Appreciation of Welding for Engineers

Course Duration:

R 11,813.00
5 days
2013 Course dates
With increasing operating stresses and temperatures, use of new materials, etc., engineers are finding it increasingly difficult to contain maintenance
and fabrication costs due to their lack of knowledge of welding technology and related sciences.
With increased knowledge of the above, it has been proven that substantial cost savings are possible. Personnel in senior positions have difficulty in
being absent from their work for too long a period.
They must, however have a good appreciation of welding technology to ensure that both maintenance, fabrication and construction work is being
carried out effectively in terms of quality and cost effectiveness.

The code is used internationally for components such as bridges, buildings, earthmoving and mining equipment,

With the national move to select a maximum of two codes for the design, fabrication and inspection of structural steel,
it is likely that one from the United States of America and the new CEN standard will be selected.
