Faulkner Students Certify Welding Procedure

Kamron Thomas, a senior from Blount High School, and George McAlman, a junior from Williamson High School, recently became the first students ever from Faulkner Career Technical Center to pass the AWS welding qualification test using 7018 electrode. The AWS test is a difficult weld because it is done in a vertical 3G and overhead 4G position. The test was conducted at WESCO Welding Supply, an AWS certified testing facility in Pritchard, AL.

Tim Devargus is the welding instructor at Faulkner Career Technical Center.
