4. Qualification
A person meeting the requirements of Clauses 6, 7, and 8 shall (as a minimum) be considered qualified as a Resistance Welding Technician (RWT).
5. Functions
The capabilities and duties of the RWT shall be as follows:
5.1 Capabilities
5.1.1 General. The RWT shall be capable of understanding those operations associated with resistance welding in accordance with the appropriate contract documents, codes, and other standards to produce a satisfactory product. The activities of the RWT begin before production welding, and continue through the production process cycle. The RWT shall be able to demonstrate the ability to perform the activities defined in this standard.
5.1.2 Fxpected Capabilities. Table I provides an overview of the expected capabilities of an RWT.
5.2.2 Application Principles. The RWT shall be capable of discussing basic resistance welding principles as they apply to resistance welded parts. This includes recognition and understanding applicable codes or specifications. 5.2.3 Materials and Welding/Joining Metallurgy. The RWT shall possess a basic knowledge of ferrous and nonferrous materials including: carbon steel, various types of alloy steels, stainless steels, nickel and nickel alloys, aluminum and aluminum alloys, copper and copper alloys, titanium and titanium alloys. The RWT shall be able to demonstrate a practical knowledge of how the different resistance welding processes and pre- and postwelding heat treating processes affect the metallurgy of ferrous and nonferrous materials. 5.2.4 Resistance Welding, Joining, and Heating Processes. The RWT shall demonstrate a working knowledge of one or more of the resistance welding processes, such as spot welding, projection welding, seam welding, upset welding, resistance brazing, resistance soldering, fash welding, and of resistance heating.AWS C1.5 pdf download.
