Welding & Fabrication Math Workbook

About this book

This workbook is for welding students, apprentices, welders and fabricators who want to get faster and more confident with the math of the trade: reading prints, laying out cuts, figuring steel weight, estimating weld metal, filler and gas, checking heat input, laying out pipe and bevels, and pricing a job. Each unit starts with a short lesson: what the math is, why it matters on the job, the formulas you need and one or more worked examples that show every step. Then come practice problems with space to work.

• A short lesson and worked examples at the start of every unit
• Practice problems drawn from real jobsite situations
• A full answer key, with every answer calculated and checked by computer

For practice and study. Always follow your plans, manufacturer instructions, local codes and your instructor or supervisor.
