Agricultural Mechanics 2
(Year Course - Meets Graduation Voc. Education)
Meets College Preparatory A-G Requirements - Grade 10, 11, & 12
This is a one year course devoted to the development of welding skills and techniques used in industry. Topics for the class activities are: All phases of Oxygen-Acetylene Welding and Cutting, Shielded Metal Arc Welding, and an introduction to MIG (Metal Inert Gas) Welding and TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas) Welding, Carbon arc gouging, and the cutting of mild steel, aluminum, and stainless steel by use of the Plasma Cutter. Construction of metal projects is permissible and encouraged, but only after completion of required assignments. Each Student is required to purchase a pair of coveralls. Prerequisite - Ag Mechanics I
Ag Welding & Application (with Lab)
(Offered only on Odd Graduation Years)
(Year Course - Meets A-G Elective Requirements Graduation Voc Education Requirement- ROP 2 Periods)
Meets College Preparatory A-G Requirements (only ROP period, excludes lab) Grade 11 & 12
ROP Welding Fabrication and Application is the capstone course designed to train students for entry-level positions in welding/metal fabrication shops and preparing students for post-secondary agricultural mechanics, welding technology & industrial technology educational programs. This full year course emphasizes welding and fabrication skills in the advanced phases of Oxyacetylene, SMAW (Arc Welding), GMAW (MIG Welding) & TIG welding. This course applies the practical knowledge and skills learned during the previous three years of instruction. The course devotes a high percentage of classroom time in project planning and job seeking skills; Students will prepare working drawings, develop and compute bill of materials, prepare a resume, letter of application, student work samples and complete an individual portfolio. Shop time is devoted to constructing and fabricating student projects. The majority of advanced shop skills will be taught on an individual basis on student projects. Students are encouraged to exhibit any constructed, repaired or restored projects at the local County Fair and the California State Fair.
Prerequisite – Ag Mechanics I & Ag Mechanics II

Agriculture Welding Processes & Fabrication (with Lab)
(Offered only on Even Graduation Years)
(Year Course -Meets A-G Elective Requirements, Meets Graduation Voc Education Requirement- ROP 2 Periods)
Meets College Preparatory A-G Requirements (only ROP period, excludes lab) Grade 11 & 12
This course emphasizes welding and fabrication skills, including non-ferrous metals, in the advanced phases of Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Gas Metal Arc Welding (GMAW), Gas Tungsten Arc Welding (GTAW). The course devotes a high percentage of classroom time in project planning and job seeking skills; Students will prepare working drawings, develop and compute bill of materials, prepare a resume, letter of application, student work samples and complete an individual portfolio. The primary emphasis is on using equipment in all positions of welding with the application of welding skills learned through project fabrication, repair and industry procedure.
