CSWIP Senior Welding Inspection Theory Refresher eLearning

Is it for me?

What will I learn?

This course is designed to assist in the preparation for your initial examination resits or to prepare for your 10-year renewal resits. The eLearning package consists of eleven modules:

• Module 1: Welding Defects - Types of welding defects that can occur, and how to identify them
• Module 2: Duties of a Welding Inspector Before Signing-off a Product - Requirements of a welding inspector before, during, and after welding
• Module 3: Weldability of Steels and Joining Dissimilar - Definition of the term weldability, characteristics of steel alloys and their cracking mechanisms
• Module 4: Non-Destructive Testing - Basic insight into the main NDT methods that welding inspectors will encounter
• Module 5: Destructive Testing/Quantitative and Qualitative - Destructive tests available to establish the mechanical properties and soundness of welded joints
• Module 6: Welding Processes and Consumables - Main arc welding processes, the variables that affect them and their advantages and disadvantages
• Module 7: Residual Stress and Distortion/PWHT - Causes of residual stress and distortion and how to prevent them
• Module 8: Welding Symbols on Engineering Drawings - The different welding symbols that are used to symbolically represent weld joints
• Module 9: Welding Inspection Assessment - Test on knowledge acquired from all the Welding Inspection modules
• Module 10: NDT Reports - Various elements that should be included on different types of NDT reports
• Module 11: Fracture Assessment - Different fracture mechanisms that may occur in welded joints and how to prepare detailed reports
