Hey guys.. some news about this issue.. contractor wants to repair the "hot tears" with welding (defects no too Deep) and installing some reinforced pads and welding all around in defects deeply.. These beams are not high tensile demanded.
There are plenty of steel beams with the same defect.. what could be the source of such problem? These beams came from a recognized european steel mill company.
Daer guys.
I have found in a mil Steel I beam superficial deffects.. It looks like some longitudinal cracks in several points and with long lenghts.
Does anybody had lived something similar? for me it is my first case in many years.
I attach some pics...
Thanks guys for your cooperation and comments.

I am wondering if you (guys)...
I attach some pictures for a better understanding.
By the way, my engineering also noted me some parts of lean concrete (blind concrete) shows some breaks.
I would appareciate your comments!http://files.engineering.com/getfile.aspx?folder=952535b6-fa35-4994-b05e-633aefe66148&file=Lean_concrete.jpg
