What is an NBIC R-3 Form used for?

What is an NBIC R-3 Form used for?

What is an NBIC R-3 Form used for?

(OP)
Form R-1 Report of Repair and Form R-2 Report of Alteration seem easy enough to understand, but under what circumstances would someone prepare a National Board Inspection Code Form R-3 Report of Parts Fabricated by Welding?

How can you fabricate new components per the NBIC when it isn't a construction code?

Thanks,

-Christine

RE: What is an NBIC R-3 Form used for?

Read the last paragraph of RC-1050 of the NBIC.......

When the original code of construction is other
than ASME, replacement parts subject to internal
or external pressure, fabricated by welding
shall be manufactured by an organization
certified as required by the original code of
construction. The item shall be inspected and
stamped as required by the original code of
construction. Certification to the original code
of construction as required by the original code
of construction or equivalent shall be supplied
with the item. When this is not possible or
practicable, the organization fabricating the
part may have a National Board Certificate of
Authorization; replacement parts shall be
documented on Form R-3 and the " R symbol
stamp applied as described in Appendix 2.

There are three kinds of people in this world; those who can count and those who can't.
