Module 4: Weld Joint Geometry and Welding Symbols
The universality of American Welding Society (AWS) weld symbols ensures continuity of communication between designers, supervisors, inspectors, welders, and regulatory bodies. The U.S. Departments of Defense and Transportation both use the AWS welding symbols systems.
This module reveals the relationship between these symbols and the actual appearance of welds and their component parts, the configuration of welds, and weld joint geometry.
