Blueprint
Reading for Welders
|
Description: |
Seventh Edition
A. E. Bennett,
Louis J. Siy |
This hands-on guide to reading
and interpreting blueprints has been updated to provide all new
information on computer-aided design and computer numerical control.
Readers will develop the skills
needed to interpret all types of working sketches and prints, from
the simplest to the most complex, through step-by-step instructions.
Both AWS and ISO
welding symbols are included, along with one or more prints at the
end of each unit. Advanced coverage includes auxiliary views, detail
views, projections, sections, and detail and assembly drawings.
Other topics covered include pipe
welding symbols, metric and dual dimensioning, bills of materials,
ISO for welding, and first and third angle orthographic projection.
Folded tear-out drawings at the
back of the book are included as reproductions of various assignment
drawings in a larger size for ease of use.
Features:
- the seventh edition emphasizes hands-on
practice in reading and interpreting prints and features an all
new blueprint on fillet welds
- review assignments at the end of every
chapter reinforce content by encouraging users to view prints and
answer questions accordingly
- several sections on metrics and dual
dimensioning are featured, including Geometric Dimensioning &
Tolerancing
- coverage of pipe welding symbols helps
prepare readers for a separate career path in the welding industry
- helpful Appendices include specification
sheets for structural metal shapes and conversion tables for
decimals, fractions, inches, and millimeters
