DESCRIPTION:
The Best Welding Textbook There Is Yer Pal I borrowed this textbook through a system that allows people to borrow books from almost any library in Michigan. On top of that, I borrowed a number of other welding textbooks. I did this because I was taking a welding class and didn't have the money to buy the textbook our class prescribed (Welding by David J. Hoffman, Kevin R. Dahle and David J. Fisher, 2011). I was able to get the Hoffman book my cl. Five Star Plus! D. Worth every cent. Advanced training and info. Must have for anyone wanting proper info. It will not substitute for hands on training but will put you ahead of the power curve in every way. Great in depth info on any process you care to brush up on, learn about before purchasing equipment, etc. Extremely well written, illustrations and pics first class. Five star plus!. "Far better than most welding books" according to JH685. This book is far better than most basic books. It covers far more detail, while not delving into some of the mathematics that you might find in the Welding handbook. This is a practical book that reads fast and easy, but is interesting and contains a lot of valuable information and techniques.
Larry Jeffus has over forty years experience as a dedicated classroom teacher and is the author of several Delmar Cengage Learning welding publications. He is a Life Member of the American Welding Society. Larry Jeffus holds a Bachelor of Science Degree and has completed post graduate studies. Since retiring from full-time teaching, he remains very active in the welding community, especially in the field of education. Professor Jeffus was selected as Outstanding Post-Secondary Technical Educator in the State of Texas by the Texas Technical Society. In his welding career he has passed many welding certification tests in a wide variety of processes, positions, and on many different material types and thicknesses. He serves on several welding program technical advisory committees and has visited high school, college, and technical campuses in more than forty states and four foreign countries. Larry has provided welding and professional consulting servic
In his welding career he has passed many welding certification tests in a wide variety of processes, positions, and on many different material types and thicknesses. Professor Jeffus has served for 12 years as a board member on the Texas Workforce Investment Council in the Texas Governor's office where he works to develop a skilled workforce and bring economic development to the state.

Key steps and techniques within the small projects are also linked to larger projects presented at the end of each chapter, enabling you to apply what you have learned by fabricating and welding something more substantial. To further enhance the learning process, every welding project includes a set of prints with specifications, like those used in production fabrication shops. The included projects are small to conserve materials during the learning process, but detailed instructions and abundant photos and illustrations guide you through a wide range of fabrication skills. WELDING AND METAL FABRICATION employs a unique hands-on, project-based learning strategy to teach welding skills effectively and keep you motivated. This thorough, reader-friendly book also prepares you for real-world success by covering shop math and measurement, time and material tracking, and invoicing.. This groundbreaking new book connects each welding technique to a useful and creative take-home project, making exercises both practical and personal--and avoiding the tedium of traditional, repetitive welding practices. This full-featured approach to skill-building reflects the reality of professional welding, where following prints and instructions precisely and laying out, cutting out, and assembling weldment accurately are just as essential as high-quality welding
