WLD 299 CAP Advanced Concept Design and Fabrication

Capstone course. In this course a student will take a project that they are interested in and develop a concept by looking at what others have done and customize this to their specific needs and design sensibilities.

 You will devise a set of working drawings from which, you will come up with a list of materials and the amounts need.

With the working drawings complete a student will extrapolate a fabrication plan and welding procedures.

 During fabrication a student will use fixtures that they have made to help keep progress move along smoothly. While building the project, they will track revisions in the design and fabrication plan.

 When the project is completed the student will make a presentation to the welding program advisory committee. This will be a powerful portfolio piece for a student’s resume.
