Dear Expert
It is clear that tack welding require qualified welder,but if we wants to qualify unqualified person,then ho to qualify?Also if we do only tack weld of supporting plates with pipe/plates for straight alignment,do we need qualification of that unqualified person,also keep in mind that these tacking are removed after final welding.
