What does the weld joint number in the weld inspection commission form mean? Help! !
It’s just a code; it doesn’t have any special meaning. It’s numbered according to different pipelines, in order to keep track of the workload and the construction workers
On each single-line diagram, there is a sequence number that starts at 1; it is used by the construction company to keep records before carrying out flaw detection, and also to identify the specific welds that need to be inspected if they prove to be defective after the detection process. This is done by the construction company’s welding engineers, and such markings are not present on the single-line diagrams prepared by the design agency.
Isn’t a normal welding code just numbers plus letters? What does this mean inside the parentheses?
So, what’s inside these parentheses is something that the inspection personnel mark themselves, right?
Mm-hmm, yes. What I’m not quite sure about is the meaning of what’s inside the parentheses for this weld joint number.
It should not be filled out by the flaw detection personnel; it is required that the welding engineer from the construction party be responsible for filling it out. However, in practice, this task is often assigned to the leaders of various small construction teams or their technicians, but it definitely shouldn’t be done by employees of the flaw detection company.
This facilitates operation and tracking; without it, technical documents, welding records, etc. cannot be matched to the welded joints.
Okay, thank you:handshake
