Course overview
The overall purpose of the course is to provide practical training in bolt tightening and shimming techniques and tools specific for the purpose through the use of different types of exercises performed individually and/or in small groups the ability to safely and competently perform torquing and tensioning of bolts as well as shimming are achieved.
The course is a combination of theory and practical training, so we ensure both an understanding of the mechanisms involved, and why the necessary precautions should be taken, just as it is important to understand torque tensioning itself from a purely practical point of view.
