Weld Repairs

1. Repairs to weld joints and weld overlays shall be performed using a repair welding procedure qualified in accordance with Section 8.2, and shall meet the same requirements as the normal fabrication welds.

2. Minor repairs may be performed without notification of Purchaser, but shall be documented in the files provided to Purchaser at the completion of the fabrication.

3. Major repairs shall not be performed without authorization of Purchaser. Major repairs shall be defined as follows:

1) Defects that require removal of more than 12 inches (305) mm of weld metal or have a depth greater than 1/2 T.

2) Any crack.

3) Multiple repair areas, regardless of size.

4. A weld map showing all of the repair areas shall be provided in the final documentation provided by the manufacturer.

Exercise 3. Join the halves of the sentences.

1. Major repairs shall not be performed	a. using a repair welding procedure.
2. Minor repairs shall be documented	b. without notification of Purchaser.
3. Repairs to weld joints and weld overlays shall be performed	c. without authorization of Purchaser.
4. Minor repairs may be performed	d. in the final documentation provided by the manufacturer.
5. A weld map showing all of the repair areas shall be provided	e. in the files provided to Purchaser at the completion of the fabrication.

Exercise 4. Describe the difference between minor and major repairs.

Exercise 5 Read the extract from the specification and think of a title to it.

1. Temporary attachment welds shall be made using qualified procedures and qualified personnel.

2. Temporary attachment welds shall be completely removed and inspected either by either magnetic particle testing (MT) or liquid penetrant testing (PT). The surface under such welds shall be properly conditioned by grinding and inspected by MT or PT examination.

3. Areas that are below the required minimum wall thickness shall be weld repaired in accordance with section 6.8.
