I have a vendor who was asked to weld an small electrical cabinet from 304L stainless steel in acordance with D1.3.
He has submitted an internal welding procedure which refers to MIL-STD 1595A Welding Operators Qualification Tests and MIL-STD-2219 Fusion Welding for Aerospace Applications.
The individual welder has been qualified by an outside, independent, testing lab in accordance with MIL-STD-1595A.
His opinion is that the documentation he has supplied is sufficient to satisfy the contract requirements.
Are the vendor's submittals as good as or better than 1.3? Would the paperwork he has submitted qualify him for D1.3 (being as good or beter than)? If not, what else would be needed.
Anyone's help on this would be greatly appreciated, as there is a good deal of time and effort expended on this project which could potentially have been in vain.
Thanks in advance.
