Description
Objectives
Learning Objective 1 – Summarize fillet welds and preparing to weld them.
- Identify fillet welds and their properties.
- Outline preparing for fillet welding.
Learning Objective 2 – Summarize basic SMAW techniques, as well as how to create beads and fillets.
- Describe how to strike and control the arc to produce a weld pass.
- Describe producing stringer and weave beads, as well as surfacing welds.
- Describe fillet welding in all positions.
Performance Tasks
Performance Task 1 (Learning Objective 1) – Safely set up SMAW equipment for fillet welding.
Performance Task 2 (Learning Objective 2) – Strike an arc.
Performance Task 3 (Learning Objective 2) – Use E6010/E6011 and E7018 electrodes to make stringer, weave, and surfacing beads.
Performance Task 4 (Learning Objective 2) – Use E6010/E6011 and E7018 electrodes to make flat fillet (1F) welds.
Performance Task 5 (Learning Objective 2) – Use E6010/E6011 and E7018 electrodes to make hor- izontal fillet (2F) welds.
Performance Task 6 (Learning Objective 2) – Use E6010/E6011 and E7018 electrodes to make ver- tical fillet (3F) welds.
