Re: [MW:8321] welder qualification for ASME U stamp vessel

Hi,
As per Sec.IX,Welder Qualification is the manufacturer's responsibility.AI shall review only.AI shall witness only by the the customer's requirement.Please find below the extraction of Sec.IX.

QW-300.2

(a) The basic premises of responsibility in regard to

welding are contained within QW-103 and QW-301.2.

These paragraphs require that each manufacturer or contractor

(an assembler or an installer is to be included within

this premise) shall be responsible for conducting tests to

qualify the performance of welders and welding operators

in accordance with qualified Welding Procedure Specifications,

which his organization employs in the construction

of weldments built in accordance with the Code. The purpose

of this requirement is to ensure that the manufacturer

or contractor has determined that his welders and welding

operators using his procedures are capable of developing

the minimum requirements specified for an acceptable

weldment. This responsibility cannot be delegated to

another organization.

 
Thanks & Regards,

As per my understanding, if its a Code Stamp Job, then qualification of welder must be witnessed by AI. Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

Dear Santosh,
 
Welder qualification as mentioned below is the responsibility of manufacturer. There is no need to call a Third party to witness the test. The test shall be witnessed by the manufacturer's representative. The procedure for the witness shall be as per your Quality Control manual.
 
Regards,
