This book employs a project-based learning strategy to teach welding skills effectively and keep readers motivated. This groundbreaking new text connects each welding technique to a useful and creative take-home project, making exercises both practical and personal. To further enhance the learning process, every welding project includes a set of prints with specifications, like those used in production fabrication shops. The included projects are small to conserve materials during the learning process, but detailed instructions and abundant photos and illustrations guide readers through a wide range of fabrication skills. Key steps and techniques within the small projects are also linked to larger projects presented at the end of each chapter, enabling you to apply what you have learned by fabricating and welding something more substantial. This thorough, reader-friendly text also covers relevant academics, such as shop math and measurement, and prepares readers for real-world success, documenting time and materials for each project and preparing a detailed invoice.
