Intended learning outcomes

After passing this course, the student will be able to:

  • thoroughly describe the materials technology of welding (weldability and how materials are affected)
  • describe different metals and their alloys, and their properties in welded constructions
  • describe how different pre- and post-treatment methods affects the materials
  • describe advantages and disadvantages of different surface coating methods
  • describe how the environment (corrosion, temperature, wear) affects materials and welded constructions
  • analyse risks of a welded construction and its defect tolerance
  • correctly select material and appropriate welding methodology
