The Las Vegas Convention Center (commonly referred to as LVCC) is owned and operated by the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority in Winchester, Nevada.

Metalworking is the process of working with metals to create individual parts, assemblies, or large-scale structures.

The term covers a wide range of work from large ships and bridges to precise engine parts and delicate jewelry.

It therefore includes a correspondingly wide range of skills, processes, and tools.

Welding is a fabrication or sculptural process that joins materials, usually metals or thermoplastics, by causing fusion, which is distinct from lower temperature metal-joining techniques such as brazing and soldering, which do not melt the base metal.

In addition to melting the base metal, a filler material is typically added to the joint to form a pool of molten material (the weld pool) that cools to form a joint that is usually stronger than the base material.

Pressure may also be used in conjunction with heat, or by itself, to produce a weld.

Metal fabrication is the building of metal structures by cutting, bending, and assembling processes.

It is a value added process that involves the construction of machines and structures from various raw materials.

A fab shop will bid on a job, usually based on the engineering drawings, and if awarded the contract will build the product.

Large fab shops will employ a multitude of value added processes in one plant or facility including welding, cutting, forming and machining.

These large fab shops offer additional value to their customers by limiting the need for purchasing personnel to locate multiple vendors for different services.

Metal fabrication jobs usually start with shop drawings including precise measurements then move to the fabrication stage and finally to the installation of the final project.

Fabrication shops are employed by contractors, OEMs and VARs.

Typical projects include loose parts, structural frames for buildings and heavy equipment, and stairs and hand railings for buildings.

The ampere (SI unit symbol: A, dimension symbol: I), often shortened to "amp", is a unit of electric current.

In the International System of Units (SI) the ampere is one of the seven SI base units.

It is named after André-Marie Ampère (1775–1836), French mathematician and physicist, considered the father of electrodynamics.
