Qualification Title: Shielded Metal Arc Welding NC II
Unit of Competency: Weld Carbon Steel Plates
Module Title: Performing Groove Welding on

Carbon Steel Plates
How to Use This Competency Based Learning Materials

Welcome to the module in Performing Groove Welding on Carbon
Steel Plates. This module contains training materials and activities
for you to comply.
The unit of competency “Weld Carbon Steel Plates” contains

knowledge, skills and attitudes essential for Shielded Metal Arc
Welding NC II.
You are required to go through a series of learning activities in

order to complete each learning outcome in the module. In each
learning outcome are information sheets, self-checks, operation sheets
and job sheets. Follow these activities on your own. If you have
questions, don’t hesitate to ask your facilitator for assistance.
This module was prepared to help achieve the required competency

in Shielded Metal Arc Welding NC II.
When you have completed this module and feel confident that you
have had sufficient practice, tell your trainer that you are ready for
assessment. He will arrange an appointment with a registered
assessor to assess you. The results of your assessment will be
recorded in your competency Achievement Record.
Recognition of Prior Learning (RPL)

You may already have some of the knowledge and skills covered in
this module because you have:
 Been working for some time
 Training related to this area of qualification
 Already have completed training in this area
If you can demonstrate to your trainer that you are competent in a
particular skill or skills, talk to him/her about having them formally
recognized so you don’t have to do the same training again. If you have a
qualification or certificate of competency from previous trainings show it to
your facilitator. If the skill you acquired are still current and relevant to this
module, they may become part of the evidence you can present for RPL. If
you are not sure about the currency of your skills, discuss it with your
facilitator.
Remember to:
 Read information sheets and complete the self-checks. Suggested
references are included to supplement the materials provided in this
module.
 Most probably your trainer will also be your supervisor or
manager. He/she is there to support you and show you the correct way to
do things.
 You will be given plenty of opportunities to ask questions and
practice on the job. Make sure you perform the Task Sheets and Job Sheets
until you are confident that your outputs conform to the Performance
Criteria Checklist that follows the sheets.
 Submit outputs of the Task Sheets and Job Sheets to your facilitator
for evaluation and recording in the Accomplishment Chart. Outputs shall
serve as your portfolio during the Institutional Competency Evaluation.
When you feel confident that you have had sufficient practice, ask your
trainer to evaluate you. The results of your assessment will be recorded in
your Progress Chart and Accomplishment Chart. You must pass the
Institutional Competency Evaluation for this competency before moving to
another competency. A Certificate of Achievement will be awarded to you
after passing the evaluation.
 In this module, you will find the activities for you to
complete, followed by relevant information sheets for each learning
outcome. Each learning outcome may have more than one learning
activity. You need to complete this before you can perform the
module on weld carbon steel plates using shielded metal arc
welding.

Horizontal Welding
When welding in the 2G or 2F position it is necessary to control the

weld puddle and travel speed to produce a strong weld. The horizontal
position is used widely in agricultural sectors to make repairs.
The steps necessary to perform welds in the 2G or 2F position are:

-Secure the plate in a position for running beads in a straight line
from left to right. Use adjustable locking piers or C-clamps to secure
the metal firmly.
-When performing this type of weld, the electrode and the plate
sides should form a 90º angle. Lean the electrode slightly in the
direction of the weld area.
-Adjust the amperage, travel speed, and arc length to prevent the
weld puddle from running or sagging.
-Metal that is over 1/8 inch thick should be beveled prior to
welding in the horizontal position. If welding thicker metal, or metal
that has been beveled, it is necessary to make more than one weld
pass to enhance the strength of the weld.
-A root, filler, and cap pass will be necessary.

INFORMATION SHEET NO. 1.3-1
Vertical Welding
There are two basic techniques for performing welds in the vertical
position. These two techniques are commonly referred to as “vertical
up” and “vertical down.” These two techniques can be used to perform
welds in the 3G and 3F positions.
The following is a set of instructions for performing “vertical up”

and “vertical down” welds. For most welders, light metal is easier to
weld than heavy metal because it requires less penetration.
Be certain that the metal plate is secured in a vertical position. The
use of adjustable locking pliers or C-clamps is recommended to aid in
securing the metal in position.
Position the electrode at an angle of 60º to the plate and in the
path of the weld. The electrode should be perpendicular to the sides of
the plate.
For “vertical down” welding, begin at the top of the plate with a
short arc. If the electrode sticks, stop and increase the amperage. If
the electrode burns through the metal, lower the amperage. If the
electrode continues to burn through the metal, increase the speed of
the electrode movement downward.
When welding “vertical up”, position the electrode 85º to the plate
in the path of the weld. Begin at the bottom of the plate and work up.
Use the same procedures if the electrode sticks or burns through the
metal.
As you become better at welding in the 3G and 3F positions, begin

work on thicker metals. Experiment and increase the amperage
accordingly. When welding thick plate, use one or more side-to-side
electrode movements.
As with fillet welds, “vertical up” and “vertical down” welds will
need more than one pass. A root pass should be made, along with a
filler and cap pass.

INFORMATION SHEET NO. 1.4
Overhead Welding
Welding in the 4G or 4F position is the most difficult of the out-of-

position welds. The major challenge in this type of welding is
controlling the weld puddle. The procedures for performing overhead

welds are very similar to the flat position, except that they are far
more difficult. It is necessary to pay special attention to the weld
puddle and travel speed. You must maintain a short arc as well.
The steps in overhead welding are:
Secure the metal overhead with the use of an adjustable locking
pliers or C-clamps.
Find a position that is comfortable for you before starting to weld.
Welding in the 4G or 4F position is much more difficult if the welder is
uncomfortable from the start.
Adjust the amperage setting and travel speed. The amperage
should be set at approximately the same setting as needed during
vertical welding (3). Be certain to maintain a very short arc length
throughout the entire process.
Weld with a short arc and use a moderately fast rate of travel to
prevent sagging and undercutting.
A weaving pattern is recommended for use on heavier metals. This

motion must be faster than weaves used for other position welds.
Three passes will be needed to complete this weld properly.
