The new edition supports the work of thousands of inspectors and supervisors with their increasingly stringent quality assurance responsibilities. Not too deep and not too abridged, this edition of Welding Inspection earns the rank of "handbook" with its no-nonsense style, clarity of detail, and logical progression of information - with chapters on: *operations *inspection *safety *QA *ferrous welding metallurgy *preheating/postweld heat treating *discontinuities *qualification of WPSs *qualification of welders *destructive testing *proof tests *NDE methods *metrics *standards *symbols

It is a reference that can be used as a training text for inspectors, engineers, and welders alike to reinforce their abilities to evaluate the difference between discontinuities and rejectable defects. 18 chapters, 16 tables, 108 figures, 244 pages, indexed. 6-1/2" x 9", softbound. 3rd edition, published in 2000.
