Employers need to ensure that Welding Inspectors have appropriate abilities, personal qualities and level of job knowledge in order to have confidence in their work. As a means of demonstrating this there are a number of internationally recognised schemes, under which a Welding Inspector may elect to become certified. The purpose of this text is to provide supporting WIS 5 course lecture reference notes for the use of candidates qualifying for the Certification Scheme of Welding and Inspection Personnel (CSWIP) 3.1 Welding Inspectors examination. ‘A competent inspector should have both experience and knowledge, and as such there are strict pre-examination experience requirements for the various examination grades. Each prospective CSWIP candidate should ensure his/her eligibility by evaluating experience requirements before applying for any examination against the published CSWIP document CSWIP-WI-6-92. (Requirements for Certification of Welding Inspectors) All experience should be documented on an independently verified CV. A proficient and efficient Welding Inspector would require a sound level of knowledge in a wide variety of quality related technologies employed within the many areas of the fabrication industry. As each sector of industry would rely more on specific processes and methods of manufacture than others, it would be an impossible task to hope to encompass them all in any great depth within this text, therefore the main aim has been to generalise, or simplify wherever possible A high percentage of a typical Welding Inspectors working day would generally be spent in the practical visual inspection and assessment of welds on fabrications, as such this also forms a large part of the assessment procedure for most examination schemes. BS EN 970 (Non-destructive Examination of Fusion Welds - Visual Examination) is a standard that gives guidance on welding inspection practices as applied in Europe. The standard contains the following general information: Basie requirements for welding inspection personnel. Information about conditions suitable for visual examination. Information about aids that may be needed/helpful for inspection. Guidance about the stages when visual inspection is appropriate. Guidance on what information to include in examination records. It should always be remembered that other codes and standards relating to welding inspection activities exist and may be applied to contract documents. ‘Welding Inspection of Steels WIS 5 TI = Section 01 Duties & Responsibilities MATERIALS O0NNG Rey 09-09-03 Copyright © 2004 TWI Lid TecanoLocy
