VISUAL WELD INSPECTION Sample Clauses
The Visual Weld Inspection clause establishes the requirement for inspecting welds using visual examination methods to ensure they meet specified quality standards. Typically, this involves trained inspectors examining welds for surface defects such as cracks, porosity, or incomplete fusion, often before and after welding operations. This clause helps to identify and address visible flaws early in the fabrication process, thereby ensuring structural integrity and reducing the risk of costly repairs or failures later on.
VISUAL WELD INSPECTION. During performance of this contract you will verify weld quality and workmanship using qualified inspectors trained to perform these inspection functions. Acceptable qualification of your inspectors may be based on:
(a) current or previous certification as an AWS Certified Welding Inspector; or
(b) current or previous certification by the Canadian Welding Bureau (CWB); or
(c) inspection performed by an engineer or technician who is competent in the use of weld inspection techniques and equipment, on the basis of (i) formal training or (ii) experience, or both, in metals fabrication, inspection, and testing.
