Welding Description:
Welders use various types of welding equipment to do flat, horizontal, vertical, and overhead welds. Skilled
welders generally plan work from drawings or specifications using their knowledge of fluxes and base metals
to analyze the parts to be joined. These workers then select and set up welding equipment, execute the
planned welds, and examine welds to ensure that they meet standards and specifications.
