Becoming a Navy Vessel structural welder may take a few years for some, but this worker performs fusion welding on surface and undersea US Navy vessels to a qualified Welding Procedures Specification (WPS), performs structural fusion welding on US Naval parts and components per the requirements of specifications as prescribed by Engineering Drawings and Work Orders. The employee will learn to read and understand engineering drawings and welding symbols, fabricate manufacture-welded parts from engineering drawing without direct supervision, perform fusion welding and torch brazing for ground support equipment ensuring the procedure is completed per the requirements of the national welding and brazing codes and specifications. This employee welds a wide variety of materials such as aluminum, magnesium, alloyed and low alloy steel, stainless steel, and nickel alloy steels. The welder will have knowledge of the materials to select the correct filler materials and shielding gas when generating the WPS and produce mission critical welds and assist in the development process of generating Weld Procedure Specifications as mandated by the US Navy for submarine construction. The Navy Vessel Structural Welder determines the sequence of welding to prevent or reduce the amount of warp to the weld, designs and fabricates weld holding fixtures as necessary to perform individual welding projects, performs pre-heat and post weld stress relief operations, maintains weld records. The welder may perform duties as a Qualified Weld Inspector by inspecting own welds and those of less qualified welders and may perform duties such as training and re-certification in the various welding processes.
