Published for technical training programs, Modern Welding, 13th Edition is a textbook written by William A. Bowditch, Kevin E. Bowditch, and Mark A. Bowditch that presents welding technology theory, practical techniques, and shop equipment. This volume introduces students to industrial concepts, basic principles, and shop practices across career and technical education programs.

The thematic structure progresses systematically across major industrial welding processes and cutting methods. Dedicated instructional units cover shielded metal arc welding, gas metal arc welding, flux cored arc welding, and gas tungsten arc welding. Further sections deliver detailed coverage on oxyfuel gas welding, oxyfuel gas cutting, and specialized thermal cutting processes.

To reinforce shop instruction and practical operational exercise, 30 step-by-step procedures guide learners through challenging welding operations. This training framework provides focused educational support for students who are actively pursuing AWS SENSE Level 1 certification along with AWS SENSE Level 2 certification.
