It is the duty of all welding inspectors: To ensure that welding operations are carried out in accordance with written, or agreed practices or specifications

Page 22: CSWIP Intro

Discuss the following

1) Safety:

Rules.

2) Documentation: Spec. Drawings. Procedures. Welder approvals. Certificates. Mill sheets

3) Welding Process and accessories: Equipment,Cables, Regulators, Ovens etc

4) Incoming Consumables:

Materials/welding consumables (Size. Condition. Specification. Storage)

5) Marking out preparation & set up: Method. Angles/Root face/gap values. Distortion control. Pre-heat prior to tack welding if applicable*

Before Welding:

Page 23: CSWIP Intro

During Welding:

1) Pre-Heating (Min 15 C as per UW-30 ASME Section VIII Div-I)

2) In process distortion control (Balance or sequence welding)

3) Consumable control. (Correct baking for E-7018 260-425 C and storage 30-140 C prior to use)

4) Welding process (Related parameters i.e. volts/amps. gas flow rate)

5) Welding run sequence and inter-pass cleaning

6) Minimum/maximum Inter-pass temperatures (150 C for SS, 250 C for CS.

7) Full compliance with all elements given on the WPS*

Page 24: CSWIP Intro

After Welding:

1) Visual Inspection

2) Non Destructive testing

3) Repairs*

4) Repair procedures (NDT/Welding/Welder approval)

5) PWHT

6) Hydro-static testing

7) Submission of all inspection reports to QC departments*

Activities & Imperfections*

Page 26: CSWIP Intro

A Welding Inspectors toolbox should contain*

A welding gauge (Cambridge style, or high low gauges etc)

A tape measure and scale

A wire brush

A magnifying glass

A torch and mirror

A specification, pen and report, or note paper

Page 27: CSWIP Intro

Welding imperfections can be categorized into groups:

3) Solid Inclusions

4) Lack of fusion

1) Cracks

6) Mechanical or Surface damage

5) Profile & Lack of Filling

2) Gas Pores & Porosity

7) Misalignment*

Why ?* To establish the level of mechanicalTo establish the level of mechanical propertiesproperties*

Which properties ?*

4) Ductility*3) Tensile strength*

2) Toughness (Impact Test)*

1) Hardness*

Page 38: CSWIP Intro

We test welds to establish minimum levels of mechanical properties, and soundness of the welded joint*

We divide tests into Quantitative & Qualitative methods:*

1) Quantitative tests: (Have units)*1) Quantitative tests: (Have units)*

2) Qualitative tests: (Have no units)*2) Qualitative tests: (Have no units)*

Page 39: CSWIP Intro

Types of tests include:

1) Quantitative tests:

Hardness tests

Toughness tests

Tensile strength tests*

2) Qualitative tests:

Page 41: CSWIP Intro

Generally we use a diamond or steel ball to form an indentation

We measure the width of the indentation to gauge the hardness*

Page 42: CSWIP Intro

1)1) Vickers Diamond Pyramid:Vickers Diamond Pyramid: Always uses a diamond*

2)2) Brinell hardness test:Brinell hardness test: Always uses a steel ball*

3)3) Rockwell hardness test:Rockwell hardness test: Uses a ball, or diamond depending on the scale*

All Weld Metal Tensile Testing

Page 47: CSWIP Intro

Firstly, before the tensile test 2 marks are made 50mm

During the test, Yield point & Tensile strength are measured

The specimen is put together and the marks are re-measured

A new measurement of 75mm will indicate Elongation E50 %*

3) Lack of Root Fusion

1) Excess Weld Metal Height 7) Poor Toe Blend*

4) Slag inclusion & Lack of inter-run fusion

2) Lack of Sidewall Fusion5) Root Penetration

6)Porosity

Page 49: CSWIP Intro

Bend tests are used to establish fusion in the area under test

Further tests include face, side and longitudinal bend tests*

For material over 12 mm thickness, side bend test may be used*

Page 51: CSWIP Intro

The main difference between Macro & Micro is that Micro is the study of the micro-structure at much higher magnification

The limit of Macro inspection is magnification < X 10

The specimen is usually cut from a stop/start in the test piece

Page 52: CSWIP Intro

Remember! The process of inspection is to first:

Observe, then Report, then Compare!*
