PCS Fabrications 10, 20, 30.
Course Outline and Expectations
Mr. A Cripps [email protected]
The Fab. 10, 20, 30 courses are courses designed to give the student more specific skills related to working with metals. Many of the modules in the 20 course are extensions of the work the student has done in the Fabrication 10 course. Students must complete all 10 level course modules before moving on to 20 level course modules. The student must then complete all 20 level course modules before beginning the 30 level course modules. .
Course Materials
EACH day you are expected to attend and come to class prepared with the necessary materials. These materials include:
· Assigned Textbook
· Eye protection (safety glasses) - glasses must be worn in shop environment
· Protective clothing (coveralls and shoes)
· 1" binder (to keep modules organized and presentable)
· Pen, pencil, erasers
· Supply of loose-leaf paper
Fabrication Course Content: (Each module is worth 1 credit)
Fab 10: This is a practical introduction to metal construction and fabrication with emphasis on developing safe workplace skills. Students are given the opportunity to practice both gas and arc welding. Students will participate in project planning and building. NOTE: The first course covers safety and tools and is a prerequisite for every other course in this strand. Safety gear (coveralls, footwear and safety glasses) will be required
Fab. 1010: Students investigate and describe operating principles related to the tools used in the welding industry.
Fab. 1040: The student develops basic skills in the safe handling and operation of oxyacetylene welding equipment.
Fab. 1048: The student will develop skills in the safe handling of Semi-automatic welding equipment
Fab. 1050: The student will develop basic skills related to the safe operation of one or more electric welding processes.
Fab 1090: The students will use basic tools, materials and processes to fabricate sheet materials into finished products, models, or prototypes.
Fab 20: This program is intended for students who want to develop advanced welding skills and possibly seek a career in welding.
Fab 30: This program is intended for students who want to develop workplace standards in welding. Students who successfully complete this program may continue into apprenticeship
Fab. 20, 30 level: Courses offered extend the students capabilities in welding techniques. Details may be obtained by looking at the program of studies. http://education.alberta.ca/media/2205360/fab.pdf
Course Evaluation Per Module
Theory - Assignments are averaged (25%)
Practical- All jobs are averaged (50%)
Professionalism
Habits- Work and Safety skills are assessed (12.5%)
Ethics- Attitude, responsibility and behaviour are assessed (12.5%)
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Students are required to have closed toe (preferably leather) shoes or boots. Coveralls or cotton pants that cover the top of the footwear, and a cotton top (welding jacket). Safety glasses are mandatory (some are available for use), welding gloves (some are available for use).
CLASSROOM EXPECTATIONS
1. The Welding course is a research course with hands on shop experience. The student is responsible for his/her learning and achievement in each Module. Reading and research skills are required to complete the theory aspect of the course. Self-discipline and proper shop behaviour is essential to success in the practical work.
2. The student must attend class regularly and come prepared with necessary materials as outlined under the heading course materials.
3. The student is expected to complete all assignments and shop activities as outlined in each individual Module in order to be successful and obtain 1-credit.
a. All Module due dates are mandated by the PCS CTS department head and thus all Module work must be completed on that date.
b. It is the student’s responsibility to check with the teacher, or fellow students for missed assignments upon return from an absence.
4. Due dates for each individual Module will be posted in the classroom.
5. The student is required to bring their Modules to every class.
a. Within each Module is the list of assignments and shop activities that are mandatory for the successful completion of the Module.
b. When Modules are due, any shop activity that is not signed off with a grade will be marked as incomplete, and will jeopardize the successful completion and therefore no credit will be awarded. (With discretion of the teacher, special arrangement may be made in order to complete specific shop tasks).
SHOP EXPECTATIONS
1. The shop facility & its contents, fellow students and teachers are to be treated with the respect and tolerance they deserve.
2. Shop activities are to be performed on an individual basis; however, providing assistance to classmates in need is acceptable.
3. Safety glasses and PPE clothing must be worn in the shop area at all times.
4. Safety is of utmost importance and any disregard will result in removal from the shop area for a set period of time.
5. Continued inappropriate behaviour will result in the removal from the course.
a. a). Zero tolerance for pushing/ shoving or any other form of physical contact.
b. b). Zero tolerance for verbal abuse including belittling another person in classroom or shop environment.
6. At no time will food or drink be allowed in the shop area.
Failure to comply with the outlined expectations and any additional rules and regulations put forth by the teacher may result in student dismissal from the course.

Ø I will only use an item, tool or piece of equipment I have been instructed in its use
Ø I will report all accidents or injuries immediately to the teacher
Ø I will take care and be responsible for my own project work
Ø I will not interfere with the learning or safety of my classmates
Ø I will treat others in the class with the respect they deserve
