Fabrication Math II
The AWS Fabrication Math II course builds upon the lessons learned in Fabrication Math I to explain the concepts, equations, and formulas that welders, welding foremen, welding supervisors and other welding professionals require to estimate, plan, and produce quality welds. The same type of audio narration, animated graphics, examples, and practice problems found in Math I make these more advanced concepts just as easy to understand and remember. Topics include unit conversions, percentages and ratios, and the calculation of area and volume. Please see the course curriculum for a complete list of topics.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Who should take this course?
Welders, welding foremen, welding supervisors, production managers, welding sales representatives and other welding professionals that require the mathematical skills to accurately measure the physical dimensions of welds and calculate the cost of the labor, materials, and equipment required to produce them.
-
Do I qualify to take this course?
The AWS Fabrication Math II Course only requires that learners understand how to add, subtract, multiply and divide whole numbers, fractions and decimals, as well as how to convert fractions, improper fractions, and decimals. These skills are covered in Fabrication Math I.
-
How long do I have to complete this course?
Participants have access to the course content 24 hours a day for a period of 30 days from the date of registration. After this 30-day period, participants will have an additional 10 days to pass the completion exam. The exam can be activated before the end of the 30-day period if the participant has completed all the modules.
-
Does this course include a completion exam?
