Pit Weld U – 400/450 January 5, 2026 to April 23, 2026 focuses on welding techniques that apply to pipe applications. Topics include pipe fit-up, beveling, weld positions, joint geometry, and preparation with emphasis placed on bead application, profile, and discontinuities. Upon completion, students should be able to perform welds using the GTAW (gas tungsten arc welding) and SMAW (stick welding) processes to applicable codes on carbon steel pipe with prescribed electrodes in various positions. Students will also utilize oxy-acetylene torch and horizontal band saw cutting systems covered in the PWU-200 curricula. PWU-200 is a pre-requisite for this course, however applicants with prior experience or education may test-out of that course via successful completion of a proficiency test. The 16-week course is limited to twelve (12) students, and takes place on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 5pm - 10:00pm. Tuition cost is $4,395 and includes an AWS Certified Welder Test (D1.1 code, single position 2" or 6" Sch. 80 carbon steel pipe test - student choice for pipe diameter and test position).
