Welding Theory and Application

Welding Theory and Application is for use by those concerned with welding and other metal joining operations in the manufacture and maintenance of materiel.

Welding is any metal joining process wherein coalescence is produced by heating the metal to suitable temperatures, with or without the application of pressure and with or without the use of filler metals. Basic welding processes are described and illustrated in this training course. Brazing and soldering, procedures similar to welding are also covered.

This course is part of our Welding series.
