Grades: 10-12 (Full Year)
Prerequisite: Manufacturing Systems
This unified course of oxyacetylene and are welding is designed to provide training of the basic manual welding skills that are necessary for a student to produce quality welds. These skills will be used in a wide variety of welding applications. The course includes such welding related information as welding equipment, supplies, electrodes, and safety instruction. Individual projects are an intricate part of this course, enhancing the welding skills and reasoning theory of the students. The basic technical essentials of MIG and TIG welding are introduced during the semester.
Grades: 11-12 (Full Year)
Prerequisite: Manufacturing Processes 1 & 2
This course encompasses the essential objectives of Welding 1 & 2. Considerable emphasis is placed on problem solving techniques. The technical understanding and application of welding theory and the production of quality welds are achieved through actual industrial repairs. The level of difficulty encountered and the degree of performance of manual welding skills are enhanced through this application of maintenance and industrial repairs. The students design and construct a project.
Grades: 10-12 (Full Year)
Prerequisite: Construction Systems
This is a course for those students who wish to learn about woodworking. The course includes measuring lumber, material selection, wood identification, grades of lumber, tool safety, hand tools, power tools, wood joints, designing and building a project.
Grades: 11-12 (Full Year)
Prerequisite: Construction Processes 2
This is an advanced woodworking class involving woodworking machinery and craftsmanship. Areas covered will be cabinet making, carpentry, careers, wood technology, and equipment maintenance. The students will be required to design and build a project.
Grades: 11-12 (Two Full Years)
Prerequisite: Recommendation of instructor
This four semester course meets three hours per day for a total of 1080 hours. This course is for students who have aspirations of welding as a vocation. The course includes the study of the basic essentials of welding methods including a workable knowledge of the use of the equipment and the safety rules that are applicable. This course provides the student with thorough technical understanding and a step by step explanation of how to weld in the following areas: oxyacetylene welding, shielded metal arc, gas metal arc welding, gas tungsten arc welding, flux-cored arc welding, resistance welding, oxy fuel cutting, plasma arc cutting, arc welding power sources, welding symbols and joint designs, blue print reading, soldering, brazing and braze welding, and welding projects.
