Required Code Marking for Repair Material
(OP)
We are in the process of applying for an R stamp through the NBIC. I have ben charged with reorganizing the QC system and am having trouble with the material section. I am trying to get a mock repair ready for an audit by our AI and a Rep from the NB. So here is my issue: according to Section VII Div I UG-93(a)(2). The material must be marked with the following information: material specification grade, type, and class and heat number that matches an MTR will this be enough or am I missing something here.

Oh ya I'm good that way just this material purchasing gig thats new for me. I think our AI is just forcing me to be a little more thorough with this as any issues with the NB are his issues too, with him being our Authorized Inspector and all..
RE: Required Code Marking for Repair Material
Heat numbers as well as grade type and class may not be enough. Be prepared to answer the question of ....what if..... the reason for this is because heat numbers are arbitrary and specific to the material manufacturer's marking system. Any material manufacturer may unknowningly identify their material with the same "alpha-numeric system" of another material manufacturer. With your QC System, you should be able to sort it out in case of duplication.. Of course even though this may be a very unlikely scenario, it is still possible and it has occurred at least once in my career as an AI. If you were to tie in the PO to the material, you now have completely eliminated all possibility of duplication.

You are doing it correctly. As you have described, follow the ordering and receipt inspection criteria outlined in the material specs located in Section II Parts A and B (as applicable) and verify the required markings as well. Identify the "should" and "shall" and "may" wording within these criteria. You are on the right track. Your AI will help eliminate issues that you might feel uncomfortable with. Utilize the AI as much as you are able.
