1)Weld Profile: Inspectors examine the overall appearance of the weld, including its
size, shape, and alignment. They ensure that the weld conforms to the specified
dimensions and that there are no issues such as undercutting, overlap, or insufficient
penetration.
2) Weld Surface Condition: The surface of the weld is checked for cleanliness,
smoothness, and the absence of any undesirable features like spatter, slag, or other
contaminants.

An "arc strike" in welding refers to the unintentional contact of an electric welding arc
with a surface other than the intended work piece. This can occur when the welding
electrode or arc momentarily touches a surface other than the base metal being
welded. Arc strikes can happen on nearby metal structures, clamps, or even the
welding equipment itself.
1. Surface Damage: Arc strikes can cause damage to the surface they touch, leading
to localized heating, melting, or even gouging. This can result in surface irregularities
and compromise the integrity of the material.
2. Hardening: In some cases, an arc strike can cause localized heat and rapid cooling,
leading to hardening of the affected area. This can result in increased susceptibility
to cracking or other metallurgical issues.
MILL CERTIFICATE
A mill certificate, also known as a mill test certificate or material test report (MTR), is
a document that certifies a material's compliance with specific standards and
specifications. In the context of welding, mill certificates are often associated with the
base metals or filler metals used in the welding process.

The figure above show workpiece is heated slowly,kept at temperature and
also cooled slowly again.among other things,this reduces the stresses in the
material that occur after welding.by reducing the stresses,you prevent cracks
or fracture from forming as soon as the workpiece is to be worked on
Post weld heat trearment (PWHT) is a controlled process in which a material that
has been welded is reheated to a temperature below its lower critical transformation
temperature,and then it is held at that temperature for a specified amount of time.it is
often referred to as being any heat treatment performed after welding;however,within
the oil,gas,petrochemical and nuclear industries,it has a specific meaning.industry
codes,such as the ASME pressure vessel and piping code,often require mandatory
performance of PWHT on certain materials to ensure a safe design with optimal
mechanical and metallurgical properties

WELDING PROCEDURE SPECIFICATION (WPS)
WPS serves as a guide for welders, ensuring that they follow a standardized and
approved procedure to achieve consistent and high-quality welds. It is a crucial
part of quality assurance and is often required in industries where welding plays a
significant role in the fabrication of structures, pipelines, and other component
The figure above shows the method is used for the detection of surface and
near-surface flaws ferromagnetic materials and is primarily used for crack
detection.

‘NDT is the life blood of a well-run facility,and the high importance of NDT is known
by any trained inspector.NDT techniques and repeatable results depend on high
trained technicians with experience and integrity.Not only does the technician need
to be certified in a specific NDT method,but they also need to know how to operate
the equipment being used to gather data.
