32、, medium, and large union or non-union facilities. 2.4.2 Occupational Hazards. As is the case in most metalworking industries, the potential for bodily harm and hazardous situations exists. High electrical currents and voltages are used to operate machinery and welding equipment. Machinery for shear

33、ing, forming, and punching various thicknesses of materials is used. Flammable and other compressed gases are used during flame cutting and welding operations. The employee may be in direct contact with heavy sections during lifting and positioning operations. Welders may work in enclosed, restricte

34、d spaces, and at times at high elevations and in awkward positions. An undesirable noise level is sometimes generated during the production process. The welder must take safety precautions, and be safety conscious at all times. STD*AWS EGi-O-ENGL 199b 07842b5 0518177 573 7 2.4.3 Worker Profile. This

Knowledge- related le

48、arning activities are brought to a close with the trainees successful completion of a related information test (formative testing). Performance-related learning activities provide the instructor with a means by which to guide the trainee in attaining the objective. Utilizing the now-acquired technic

49、al information to guide his or her actions, the trainee receives a demonstration of the objective, practices performing it until an acceptable level of skill and confidence is gained, and takes a performance test (i.e. performance qualifications and written examination) of the same to confirm mastery of the objective. Other performance-related activities may be included in the basic sequence, but the demonstration-practice-performance trilogy is fundamental to ordering performance-related activities.
