Weld Inspection
Visually evaluating welds against code criteria the way an AWS Certified Welding Inspector would: checking weld size, profile, undercut, porosity, and spatter, and calling reject when a weld fails acceptance. Inspectors read WPS and PQR documents, verify fit-up before welding, and keep fabrication honest on structural, pressure, and manufacturing jobs.
