Welding Inspector: Materials Inspection Section 6

The document discusses the importance of traceability and inspecting materials for welding projects. It focuses on inspecting pipes for defects like corrosion, wall thickness, and welded seams. Plates are also inspected for conditions, size, and defects like corrosion, damage, laps, bands, and laminations. Specific parent material imperfections are described like mechanical damage, laps, laminations, and segregation lines. Laminations originate from ingot casting defects while segregation bands occur in plate centers with low melting point impurities.

Section 6

Material Inspection
One of the most important items to consider is Traceability.
The materials are of little use if we can not, by use of an
effective QA system trace them from specification and
purchase order to final documentation package handed over to
the Client.
All materials arriving on site should be inspected for:
Size / dimensions
Condition
Type / specification
In addition other elements may need to be considered
depending on the materials form or shape

Pipe Inspection
We inspect the condition
(Corrosion, Damage, Wall thickness Ovality, Laminations & Seam)

Specification LP5

Welded Size
seam

Other checks may need to be made such as: distortion tolerance,


number of plates and storage.

4/23/2007
Plate Inspection
We inspect the condition
(Corrosion, Mechanical damage, Laps, Bands &
Laminations)

Specification
5L
Size

Other checks may need to be made such as: distortion


tolerance, number of plates and storage.

4/23/2007
Parent Material Imperfections
Mechanical damage Lap

Lamination

Segregation line
Laminations are caused in the parent plate by the steel making
process, originating from ingot casting defects.
Segregation bands occur in the centre of the plate and are low
melting point impurities such as sulphur and phosphorous.
Laps are caused during rolling when overlapping metal does not
fuse to the base material.
