Visual InspectionVisual Inspection• Visual examination can be an invaluable tool.
• Excellent process control technique to help identify welder’s problems.
• Visual examination is a method for identifying surface flaws and imperfections.
• Quality control program
• It has been shown that a conscientious program of visual inspection occurring before, during, and after welding can result in discovery of the majority of all defects.

Prior to WeldingPrior to WeldingPrior to welding, some typical action items requiring attention by the visual inspector include:
1. Review drawings and specifications.
2. Check qualification of welders to be utilized.
3. Review materials and Equipment to be utilized.
4. Check fit-up and alignment of weld joints.
5. Check preheat, if required.
6. Check for calibration of power supplies of welding machines

After WeldingAfter Welding
1. Final weld appearance,cleaning, arc strikes
2. Final weld size
3. Weld length
4. Dimensional accuracy
5. Amount of distortion, PWHT, NDT
The basic purpose of final weld inspection is to assure the weld’s quality.

Cracks.Cracks.
Cracks form in the weld and base metal when localized stresses exceed the ultimate strength of the material.
Cracks can be classified as either hot cracks or cold cracks.
Cracking associated with hydrogen embrittlement, commonly referred to as “delayed cracking.” Is a form of cold cracking. Hot cracks propagate along grain boundaries. Cold cracks propagate both along grain boundaries and through grains.

UndercutUndercutUndercut creates a transition which should be evaluated for a reduction in cross section, and for stress concentrations or notch effect which fatigue is a consideration
Overlap Overlap is the protrusion of weld metal beyond the weld toe, or weld root.
