Hallo,
By the WPS Qualification and the Welder Qualification (API 1104), the welding of the test pieces and the testing of the test pieces (N.D.T. and D.T)shall be verified (witnessed) by an examiner or examining body ?

RE: Qualification
If you are asking about welder qualification, API 1104 Section 6.1 indicates:
"The qualification of welders shall be conducted in the presence of a representative acceptable to the company."
If it relates to welding procedure qualification, destructive testing is required.

RE: Qualification
SectionIX:
1) I am not referring to welder qualification for a specific project(client/company), but to welder qualification in my plant for future jobs. In this case what kind of represantive I can have?
2) During the D.T or N.D.T. tests, is it requiring the presence of examining body (whitness)?
SJones:
I post the same question over several forums, to check the differences between the Codes. This is the mystery.

RE: Qualification
SJones I do not know what you meen. You ask me:
"Also, don't post the same question over several forums. Why it is in the ASME forum is a mystery.

I had post a question for API in a API forum, and a question for ASME in a ASME forum.
