INFORMATION SHEET #1.1
Alphabet of Lines
Lines are the bases of all drawing. They are used even from simple drawing
to the difficult ones. Practice, exercise and correct use of techniques in the
making of lines will give student experience in technical sketching. Moreover,
constant practice will help students develop skill in making lines and use of
pencils. It should be remembered that the basic requirement for line
construction is clarify of line produced.
In practice, the kind of line produced, depends on the hardness of the
pencil. For drawing using pencil, the medium and light lines are more
prepared.
There are conventional lines used in drawing. These lines are called
alphabet of line and each line serves a particular purpose. These lines may
either be drawn freehand or they may be drawn mechanically.
There are several different types of lines used on a print and each has
different meaning. To be able to interpret a print, the reader should have
knowledge of these lines. These lines are called alphabet of lines.
1. Object Line. Thick solid line used to show the visible shape of the object.
___________________________
2
2. Hidden Line. Broken line of medium thickness and used to show the edges
and outlines not visible to the eye.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ----
3. Center Line. Fine, broken line made up of a series of short and long dashes
alternately spaced. To show the center of circles, arcs, and symmetrical
objects and to aid in dimensioning the parts of the object.
4. Extension Line. Fine lines that extend from the object with a slight break
between and it is used to show dimensioning points.
6. Leader Line. Fine, straight line with an arrowhead or round solid dot at one
end and usually drawn at angle. Points directly to a surface for the purpose
of dimensioning or adding a note. A dot may be used at the end of the
straight line where reference is made to a surface area.
7. Cutting Plane Line. A thick broken line made up of a series of one long and
two short dashes alternately spaced. The arrowheads are placed at right
angles to the cutting plane line. The purpose of this line is to indicate where
an imaginary cut is made through the object. The arrow points in the
direction in which the section should be viewed. Letters next to the
arrowheads identify the section in cases where more than one section is
shown on the drawing. These lines are oriented vertically, horizontally, or at
the actual angle at which the part is drawn.
3
8. Section Lines. Series of fine lines-solid or solid and broken-arranged in
specific patterns. They may be shown either straight or curved. When
shown straight, they are usually drawn at a 450 angle. It is used to indicate
the imaginary cut surface referred to by the cutting plane line. To represent
various kinds of materials.
9. Chain Line. Heavy, broken line made up of a series of long and short
dashes alternately spaced. It is used to indicate the location and extent of a
surface.
10. Short Break Line. Heavy, irregular line drawn freehand used to show a
short break to conserve space on a drawing.
11. Long Break Line. Ruled, light line with freehand zigzags used to show a
long break to conserve spaced on a drawing.
12. Phantom Line. Light, broken line made up of a series of long and two short
dashes used to show alternate positions of a part; to show relationship of
existing part to new part; and to show machined surfaces.

INTRODUCTION
This lesson covers the knowledge skills and attitude required for
identifying orthographic and Isometric Views in accordance with the working
plan.
Assessment Criteria:
Definition of Terms
7
INFORMATION SHEET # 2.1
The term orthographic comes from the Greek words orthos and graphos
which mean to write and to draw. Orthographic sketching therefore is drawing
using lines only.
This kind of drawing is simple. Its purpose is to represent a shape using
two or more views.
Orthographic Drawing
The frontal plane shows the shape of an object as seen from the front. This
is called FV.
The horizontal plane shows the object as viewed from the top. This is
called the TV of an object.
8
The profile plane shows the shape of the object as seen from the side, the
distance from bottom to top and front to back. This is called the SV of an
object.
9
View is the different position used in orthographic projection that an
object may be projected and this is done by extending perpendicular lines to
the plane from all parts of the object.
B. Right Side View. View directly observed at the right of the front
view and it is the opposite of the Left Side View.
E. Rear View or Back View. View that is the opposite of the front
view.
F. Left Side View. View directly observed at the left of the front view
and it is the opposite of the Right Side View.
10
Principles of Orthographic Drawing
Principles involved in orthographic drawing are the following:
1. The top view is directly above the front view.
2. The side views are horizontally in line with the front view.
3. The width of the top is equal to the width of the side views.
5. A line or edge parallel to the plane of projection will also appear as a line
or edge in its exact or true length.
11
6. A line or edge inclined to the plane of projection will appear shorter or
foreshortened.
10. No line or edge of the object can be projected longer than its true length.
12
ACTIVITY SHEET 2.1
Orthographic Sketching
Procedure:
a. Know the dimensions of the object: the length, width and thickness.
Study the proportions of the parts and that of the whole object.
b. Check on the kind of view you wish to use in the object. Be sure
that the main surfaces are represented. More importantly check on
the size of the views taking care that they are proportioned
properly.
c. Draw the object using light lines first to give easier time for
erasures. Later when the view drawn is acceptable, the lines will be
made darker.

Dimensioning
Dimensioning Rules
21
Avoid repetition of dimensions.
Proper Improper
22
6. Dimensional figures are preferably directional. Unidirectional
dimensions may be used if the company desires them. Never mix
directional dimensions in a drawing.
23
10. Staggered dimensioning should be used when the spaces for the
dimensions are narrow.
13. Arrowheads should point to the terminating line and not to the
dimensional figure.
24
Preferred Poor Practice
15. When giving the location dimensions for round holes, measure the
center to center distance between holes and from the center line of
the holes to the two nearest visible lines.
16. Place dimension closest to the part being measured. Dimensions may
be placed inside a view.
25
19. Give the diameter of a circle or round hole. Note the various ways of
positioning the dimension lines.
Correct Incorrect
26
24. Use radial dimensioning for large arcs, especially those with centers
outside the drawing paper.
25. For tuned pieces, put one set of dimensions on one side and the other
set on the other side of the view
27
28. Avoid crossing dimensions

Unit of Competency: Interpret Drawing and Symbols
Module Title: Interpreting Drawing and Symbols
This lesson covers the knowledge skills and attitude required for interpreting
standard drawing symbols, dimensional tolerances and notations according to
specification.
Assessment Criteria:
Definition of Terms
34
INFORMATION SHEET 3.1
Welding Symbol
Location of Elements: The elements of a welding symbol have standard locations with
respect to each other.
The symbol depicting an arrow side weld is always placed below the reference line. The
arrow side is always closest to the reader when viewed from the bottom of the drawing.
The weld symbol depicting other side weld is placed above the reference line, away from
the reader. Welds on both side of a joint are shown by placing weld symbols on both
sides of the reference line.
Some weld symbols have no arrow or other side significance. However, supplementary
symbols used in conjunction with these weld symbols may have such significance. For
example, welding symbols for resistance spot and seam welding have no side
significance, but GTAW, EBW, or other spot and seam welds may have arrow and other
side.
Dimensions: Dimensions of a weld are shown on the same side of the reference line as
the weld symbol. The size of the weld is shown to the left of the weld symbol, and the
length of the weld is placed on the right. If a length is not given, the weld symbol
applies to that portion of the joint between abrupt changes in the direction of welding
or between specified dimension lines. If a weld symbol is shown on each side of the
reference line, dimensions are required to be given for each weld even though both
welds are identical.
If a weld in a joint is to be intermittent, the length of the increments and the pitch
(center-to-center spacing) are placed to the right of the weld symbol.
The term weld symbol and welding symbol have different meanings. A weld
symbol indicates the required type of weld. The welding symbol includes the weld
symbol and supplementary information. A complete welding symbol consists of the
following elements:
35
Reference line
Arrow
Basic weld symbol
Dimensions and other data
Supplementary symbol
Finish symbol
Tail
Specification, process and other references
F Finish Symbol
A Groove Angle: included angle of countersink for plug welds
R Root Opening; depth of filling for plug and slot welds.
S Depth of Bevel: size or strength for certain welds
E Groove Weld Size
L Length of Weld
P Pitch of Weld: center-to-center spacing
T Tail of Weld: specification, process of other reference (omitted when reference
is not used
N Number of Spot, Stud, or Projection Welds
- Field Weld
- Contour Symbol
36
In your work, you may be required to work from these drawings; therefore
you should understand the use and meaning of these symbols.
1. A reference line
2. An arrow.
3. A basic welding symbol
4. A tail
1. The reference line is a line connected to the arrow. The position of the basic
symbol above or beneath this line determines the location of the weld. The
reference line is always drawn parallel to the bottom edge of the drawing, or
to the base line of a particular view.
2. The arrow indicates the position of the weld; it is drawn at an angle from the
end of the reference line to one side of the joint. This side is called the arrow
side of the joint. The opposite side is called the other side of the joint.
37
Arrow Location
Welds on the arrow side of the joint are shown by inverting the weld symbol
and placing it beneath the reference line.
3. Basic weld symbols describe the type of weld to be made. This symbol is a
miniature drawing of the metals edge preparation prior to welding. The basic
weld symbol is only part of the entire AWS welding symbol.

4. The tail is added to the symbol only when special notes are required. A
number or letter code used inside the tail direct the welder to special notes
located elsewhere on the drawing. These notes may specify the heat
treatment, welding process used, or other information not given on the
welding symbol.

Weld Symbols
Weld symbols are intended to be based in conveying the information among the
designer, shop and fabrication personnel.
Type of joint
Type of joint preparation
Side of groove preparation and welding
Type of weld
Size of weld
a. Type of Joint
A joint is a junction of members or the edges of members that are to be joined or
have been joined. The five basic joints used in welding are:
A. Fillet weld
Dimension of fillet welds are shown on the same side of the reference line
as the weld symbol and are shown to the left of the symbol. When both sides of a
joint have the same size fillet welds, one or both may be dimensioned. When
both sides of a joint have different size fillet welds, both are dimensioned. When
the dimensions of one or both welds differ from the dimensions given in the
general notes, both welds are dimensioned. The size of a fillet weld unequal legs
is shown in parentheses to the left of the weld symbol. The length of a fillet weld,
when indicated on the welding symbol, is shown to the right of the weld symbol.
In intermittent fillet welds, the length and pitch increments are placed to the
right of the weld symbol. The first number represents the length of the weld, and
the second number represents the pitch or the distance between the centers of
two welds.
47
A.2.Equal Leg Chain Intermittent Both Sides
B. Groove Weld
In groove weld preparation, the root opening is given inside the weld symbol. The
groove angle is shown just outside the weld symbol. The depth of penetration is
given on the left side of the welding symbol. Weld size may also be given in this
same location.
Edges of metal over (6.4 mm) thick are always prepared in some way before
making a groove weld, in order to ensure 100% penetration. The groove weld size
is the depth to which a weld penetrates the joint from the surface of the base
metal. The desired depth of preparation and the depth of the weld penetration
are generally determined by codes or specifications.
48
.
49
C. Plug Welds
Holes in the arrow side member of a joint for plug welding are indicated
by placing the weld symbol below the reference line. Holes in the other side
member of the joint for plug welding are indicated by placing the weld symbol
above the reference line. Refer to the figure for the location of the dimensions
used for plug welding.
The diameter or size is located to the left of the symbol (A). The angle of
the sides of the hole, if not square, is given above the symbol (B). The depth of
build-up, if not completely flush with the surface, is the given in the symbol (C).

INTRODUCTION
This lesson covers the knowledge skills and attitude required for inspecting
work done according to company procedure.
Assessment Criteria:
2. Ensure that the company quality system and procedure are maintained/followed
Definition of Terms
The inspection of work relative to the welding is one of the requirements for
production. The various inspections are companys concern in order to meet the work
standards as viewed in products and safety. Welding inspection personnel may have
specific skills and expertise for the tasks. To enumerate the various inspection
categories are as follows: Weld Visual Inspection, Material Inspection, Dimensional
Inspection and Non Destructive Testing (NDT) Inspection. These inspectors discharge
their duties in a separate functions and no one could be placed at any capacity or
assignment to do due to the qualifications of a person.
Work Instructions
The work instructions are taken from jobs/projects to be made in the work
place. These are the package of instructions allocated in the various shops of the
company. These are sets of work instruction for production and another set for quality
control department. The specific duties and responsibilities of each department to
implement the program of works and activities and that are formed in the contracts
and agreement between the fabrication and the client.
Records and reports can be the basis for turn-over works in case of leave of
absence or shifting.
Welders and workers will have to respond positively on the cases of quality
record keeping and reporting as to maintain the standard operations in the workplace.
It is the mandate that anyone in the company must observe and follow the work
safety. Safety practices must be observed in order to meet the standard production
operation in the shop.
The selection of codes and standard to be used maybe based upon several
factors, including the following:
The code and standard used is considered standard and the industry
has been use for sometime.
The perfect welds are not required. The difference between what is acceptable
and fit for service, such perfection what is known as tolerance. Agencies that issue
codes and standard and each give the specific tolerance.

INTRODUCTION
This lesson covers the knowledge skills and attitude required for applying quality
standard to work
Assessment Criteria:
3. All work activities are coordinated throughout the workplace to ensure efficient
work outcomes.
Definition of Terms
Once a code and standard in welding has been established and selected, the
quality control department will have to decide the methods for the pre-qualifications
procedures and processes applied to welding production.
Some of the pre-qualification testing that has to be done. These are pre-
qualifications of welders, procedures, materials, welding positions and welding
processes. These activities will have to be recorded and documented for the formulation
of future welding procedure specifications (WPS).
Certifying Companies/Agencies

Definition of Terms
The company operates in the manner that the basic policies and regulations has
been formed by the Policy Making Body of the Organization. The company aims to
deliver the maximum quality service in terms of product, output with customers
satisfaction. Therefore the management will have to initiate reforms after reviewing the
existing status of the operations. The assessment results will be the basis for
improvement.
The Company manuals and procedure manuals are the documents that provide
all information regarding the company operations. These documents include the
abstract presentation of the sites, buildings, facilities, products, and quality
procedures.
The quality standard manuals and the inspection record manuals are of
separate documents that are kept in the quality control department. All information
and guidelines pertaining to the quality is in the manuals. The inspection record
manuals are specific instructions for all inspections activities. These include material
records, inspection records, processes involved and the various sample forms of
inspection reports. These inspection reports of all finished products are registered in
the manual of inspection for purposes reference in the review of the production
procedures.
Processes and Quality Requirements are both tailored based on the contract
between the client and the manufacturers. Each of the sectors has to perform the
specific function. These task(s) are focused to implement and monitor the production
and quality requirements.
In the welding production, materials are stocked and filed in the stockyard in a
very spacious area or location and that at the same time an office for material control
and maintenance. All of the materials and processes are based on standard operations
of receiving delivery and in the issuance of materials to the production in-charge
personnel and to quality inspector. There are numerous ways and methods for
controlling materials in the stockyard, and this performed by personnel in-charge.
Materials for welded fabrication and often ordered with the stipulation that they
meet a particular specification. To demonstrate this compliance, the supplier can
furnish documentation which describes all important characteristic of the materials.
This documentation in metals sometimes referred to as MTR which is an abbreviation
in material (or MILL) Test Report. This document is a statement by the manufacturer
that the particular item exhibit specific chemical and mechanical properties.
Issued tools and equipments in the shop needs proper control and maintenance.
Regular or periodic inspections must be done in order not to hamper the production
outputs on the daily basis. Tools that are not fit for use must be reported and marked
defective for immediate replacement. Malfunctioning machines and equipment must be
repaired urgently to avoid production output loses.

ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION
Such an expression represents one number or one quantity. Thus, just as the
sum of 4 and 2 is one quantity, that is, 6, the sum of c and d is one quantity, that is, c
= c + d. Likewise a/b, b, ab, a-b, and so forth, are algebraic expression each of which
represents one quantity or number.
An expression containing only one term, such as 3ab, is called monomial (mono
means one). A binomial contains two terms, for example, 2r + by. A trinomial consists
of three terms. Any expression containing to or more terms may also be called by the
general name, polynomial (poly means many). Usually special names are not given to
polynomials of more than three times. The expressions x3 3x2 + 7x + 1 is a
polynomial of four terms. The trinomial x2 + 2x + 1 is an exmple of polynomial which
has a special name.

INFORMATION SHEET # . 4.1
Ratio with a colon ( : ). Suppose we want to write the ratio of 8 and 12.
We can write this as 8:12 or as a fraction 8/12, and we say the ratio is eight to twelve
Example:
Proportion
A proportion is an equation with a ratio on each side. It is the statement that two
ratios are equal.
When one of the four numbers in a proportion is unknown, cross products may be
used to find the unknown number. This could solve the proportion. Question marks or
letters are frequently used in place of the unknown number.
Example:
The simplest way to calculate percentage is to divide amount by the total amount and
then multiplying the answer by 100 to get the percentage of the given amount with
respect the total amount.
For example if John score 60 out of 75 in STVEP we can find the percentage of his
marks by dividing 60 by 75 which come to be 0.8 and then multiplying it by 100 which
gives as the percentage of his marks in STVEP which is 80%. (60/75) x 100 = 80%
19
When there are a number of given amounts (variables) and we have to find their
individual percentage then we have to add the given amounts to determine the total
amount after which by the above mentioned procedure we can easily find the individual
percentage by dividing each given amount by the total amount and then multiplying it
by 100.
Percentage questions are often worded in different ways like how much is x% of y (80%
of 75). Using the above example we can find the answer by multiplying 75 by 80 and
then dividing the amount by 100 to find the answer which is 60. To calculate
percentage increase or decrease between two numbers just subtract the smaller
number from the greater and then divide the answer by the original one and then
multiply it by 100 to determine the percentage increase or decrease. For example, to
calculate the percentage increase from 20 to 30 we subtract 20 from 30 and then,
divide the number obtained which is 10 by the original number which is 20 and then
multiply the obtained number which is 0.5 by 100 to get the percentage increase which
is 50%.

INFORMATION SHEET No. 1.1
Welding Carbon Steel Plates (1F-4F)
I. Work Safety
Safety requirements are needed prior to welding.
Wear appropriate welding uniform as prescribed to the welders;
Do not clean weld surface of metals, through grinding, brushing
and chipping without eye and body protection;
Use tools, equipment and materials properly in welding fillets (1F-
4F).
II. Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW) for Welding Carbon Steel.
A. Choosing the right electrodes
Use electrode type according to its classification and specification
Determine welding current available of your welding machine
(SMAW) and match with the electrode requirements.
Heavy materials in SMAW must require electrodes with high
current.
Deep penetration electrodes requires for edges not beveled and the
preparation with no gap fit up.
Deep penetrating electrode is used for welding close butt joint.
Some electrodes are designed for specific position welding
Some job specifications may indicate class of electrodes to be used
and based on the service requirements. (e.g. cost limit, desired
tensile strength.
Use low heat input electrodes for welding joint that requires pre-
heat, post heat procedures.
Use ordinary class of electrodes for non-critical welds and quality
electrodes for critical weld joints.
3
V. Arc Length
Arc length is an essential factor in producing a sound weld. Too long arc
dissipates the arc for the result is less concentration of heat in the work.
The arc tends to be wobbly and difficult to maintain the weld deposit that
causes to:
Excessive spattering
Greater porosities
Harmful effect from nitrogen and oxygen in the air
