While plate layout procedures are similar to those for sheet metal, there are some procedures of plate fabrication that are fundamentally different, and they are described in this chapter. Steelworkers are also tasked with constructing and installing piping systems designed to carry large quantities of liquids over long distances, so pipe layout and fabrication are other project tasks you can expect.  \nObjectives  \nWhen you have completed this chapter, you will be able to do the following:  \n1. Describe the procedures associated with fabricating plate and structural members.  \n2. Describe the procedures associated with pipe fitting.  \n3. Describe the procedures associated with pipe cutting.  \n4. Describe the procedures associated with pipe bending.  \nPrerequisites  \nNone  \n1.0.0 FABRICATING PLATE and STRUCTURAL MEMBERS  \nIn Steelworker Basic, you dealt with already fabricated assemblies such as the PEBsand the towers. However, in order to get to the assembly stage of a structural project, someone needs to lay out and fabricate the steel plate into structural members (Figure 2-1 ) , and that someone may be you.  \nFigure 2-1—Structural members.  \nSteel plate is much thicker than sheet steel, and it is more difficult to work with and form into the desired shapes (Figure 2-2) .  \nFigure 2-2—Steel plate.  \nIn order to fabricate steel plate properly, you will need the following:  \n• Adequate lighting to see the small marks you will scratch on the steel.  \n• Tools available and accessible in the work area.  \n• Accurate field sketches or shop drawings of the item to be fabricated , such as the one shown in Figure 2-3 .  \nFigure 2-3—Shop drawing.  \n1.1.0 Layout of Steel Plate  \nWhen laying out steel plate you need the following tools:  \n• Adequate straightedge scale, such as a combination square with a square head  \n• Accurate protractor  \n• Set of dividers  \n• Prick punch  \n• Center punch  \n• Ball peen hammer  \nBefore you make any layout marks on steel, first wire brush the intended mark area and then remove all residues with a brush or rag. Next, paint the surface with a colored  \nmarking compound. Aerosol spray works very well ; it allows the paint to fall only in the areas to be laid out and it produces a thin coat of paint that will not chip or peel off when you begin scribing the lines.  \nWhen appropriate, you can use a soapstone marker or a similar device to lay out the lines, but remember that many of the markings from these drawing devices can be either burned off or blown away by the flame or the force of oxygen from the cutting torch.  \nThis is unacceptable and it","cbCais9Ky7aosK7A","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCais9Ky7aosK7A","pdf",3656618,41,"English","# Topics\n## 1.0.0 Fabricating Plate and Structural Members\n## 2.0.0 Pipe Fitting\n## 3.0.0 Pipe Cutting\n## 4.0.0 Pipe Bending\n# Overview and Objectives\n## Objectives","[{\"question\":\"What skills does Chapter 2 aim to train in steel plate and structural work?\",\"answer\":\"It focuses on describing procedures for fabricating plate and structural members and for supporting tasks related to pipe layout and fabrication.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the learning objectives for the chapter?\",\"answer\":\"After completing the chapter, learners can describe procedures for fabricating plate and structural members, pipe fitting, pipe cutting, and pipe bending.\"},{\"question\":\"Why is careful layout preparation important before cutting steel plate?\",\"answer\":\"The chapter emphasizes cleaning the intended mark area, applying suitable marking compounds, using accurate reference straight lines, and center punching cutting lines to ensure precision during torch or shears cutting.\"}]","Layout and Fabrication of Structural Steel and Pipe - Chapter 2 - Course Topics and Objectives | PDF",103]
