fabrication and assembly of structural parts drawings. The student will develop skills in standard multi
view sketching techniques of common fabrication products. These “hands on” applications are
intended to improve the student’s ability to interpret standard fabrication drawings which will allow the
student to professionally communicate concepts to both production and design personnel. The
course will proceed to a thorough study of principles of blueprint reading as applied to welding
drawings. Emphasis will be placed on determining the welding and cutting costs used to prepare a
