Hobart Institute of Welding Technology in Troy, Ohio, held an open house July 19 to showcase its newest addition and renovation.
The event highlighted the new, 16,000-sq.-ft. Next Generation Welding Learning Facility, which was opened in late October 2016, as well as the newly completed renovation and expansion of the main campus.
The Welding Learning Facility features four classrooms that seat up to 120 students and contains high-tech audiovisual training aids. The facility also houses a dedicated NDT laboratory and classroom for hands-on liquid penetrant and magnetic particle inspection and training. The facility also includes a large welder performance qualification laboratory for destructive testing and 24 multiprocess welding booths.
The renovation and expansion in the main building covers 14,834 sq. ft. and includes the renovation of eight classrooms and an adviser/security office, as well as a relocation and rebuild of administrative office space. In the space that was vacated, 70 new welding booths were constructed, bringing the total arc welding booths on the main campus to 294. The renovation also includes 13 new or updated classrooms, three of which were included in the initial phase of the expansion.
