FAB+1050+Outcomes

= FAB 1050 Outcomes = FAB home identify and describe the common electric welding processes and approved abbreviations; e.g.: Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) describe how an arc is produced and controlled in GMAW and/or SMAW Flux Cored Arc Welding (FCAW) describe how an arc is produced and controlled in GMAW and/or SMAW explain the purpose of the electrode coating and/or shielding gas in their respective processes identify the essential components and accessories used in gas metal and/or shielded metal arc welding identify typical weld types; e.g.: identify typical weld positions; e.g.: describe the hazards associated with gas metal and shielded metal arc welding demonstrate how personal protective equipment is used to protect eyes, skin and respiratory system describe a safety plan in case of an accident describe the need to remove or protect all combustible materials in the welding area identify and locate the appropriate fire extinguisher and fire blanket. demonstrate basic skills in: selecting equipment and accessories setting machine parameters connecting work leads striking an arc using a tapping and scratching technique running a stringer and weave bead performing fillet welds in the flat position using SMAW, GMAW and FCAW processes complete a visual inspection of a weld by considering the overall appearance, size and shape of the bead research and describe examples of personal and trade-specific application of electric welding prepare a record of completed activities within a portfolio.
