Model Answer:
Oral Questioning Checklist

Qualification: SHIELDED METAL ARC WELDING NCI

Title or UC:
Acceptable answers are:
Extension/Reflection Questions
1. A: You can perform root pass by following Welding Procedure
Specification (WPS) and/or client specifications.
2. A: Cleaning root pass can eliminate defects and discontinuities
because if you don’t clean your weld it will create defects such as
porosity and slag.
3. A. You can check your visually by naked eye or by means of non-
destructive testing
Safety Questions
4. A. You can perform task in accordance with company or industry
requirement and safety procedure by following rules and
regulations of the company and safety procedure.
5. A. Wearing proper PPE at workplace can protect workers against health
safety risk on the job, to reduce employee exposure to
hazard.
6. A. The hazards that you can encounter while performing root pass are
burns, electric shock, fore, eye irritation.
Contingency Questions
7. A. If the root pass have crack preheat the metal as required, provide
cooling of the weld area, remove impurities, use proper electrode,
use proper welding speed and amperage current.
8. A. If porosity appear on your weld the thing that you will do is select
proper electrode, reduce the arc length, proper electrode angle, and
remove rust oil from the surface.
9. A. If you see slag on capping increase the current density, adjust the
welding speed, clean the weld edges and have a proper electrode angle.

Job/Role Environment Question

10. A. You can perform your root pass by following the WPS and/or client
specification.
11. A. You can perform your subsequent/filling passes with the approved
WPS standard
12. A. You can perform your capping by following the WPS and/or client
specification.
Rules and Regulations
13. A. It is important to follow local rules and regulations it will helps your
company prevent and detect violations of rules, which protects your
organization from fines and law suits.
