Best Practices to Prevent Noncompliance
Ensure welding procedures are only transferred as permitted by the specification. Maintain detailed records and verification of transfers. Implement a verification process to ensure compliance with transfer requirements. Implement and follow a controlled procedure for flame straightening that meets the applicable fabrication specifications. Conduct regular reviews to ensure compliance. Provide training to personnel on proper flame straightening techniques. Ensure all tack welding and capture welding meets the specified welding procedure requirements. Perform inspections and maintain records of compliance. Provide continuous training and assessments for welders to ensure adherence to procedures. Avoid using prequalified welding procedures unless AWS D1.1 specifically applies. Verify and document any exceptions. Train personnel on the limitations and proper use of prequalified procedures.
