Bolting and Welding Course - Calgary
October 19, 2010, Calgary, Alberta

The CISC 1-day course "Bolting and Welding for Design Engineers" is being presented in Calgary at the Holiday Inn Calgary-Macleod Trail South, on October 19, 2010.  Free parking is available at the hotel.  

High Strength Bolting:
Design and specification of a bolted joint requires the structural engineer to select the type of fasteners, to understand how they are to be designed, and to set out acceptable methods of installation and inspection. The purpose of this segment of the course is to provide the engineer with the information necessary to select suitable high-strength bolts, specify the methods of their installation and inspection, and to understand the basis of the design rules in CSA S16.

Welding:
This segment of the course covers weld joints, weld types, criteria for selecting weld types, matching and under-matching filler metal strength, and the procedures needed to determine welding capacity. Principles of welded connection design will be reviewed, along with case studies and solutions to field problems. Following the course, the participant should be able to solve welding problems, or otherwise know when it is necessary to consult a welding expert.
