A Quick Guide to Welding and Weld Inspection
A Quick Guide to Welding and Weld Inspection written to provide a quick guide to welding inspection which is easy to read and understand. There are many books covering all aspects of welding (many of them go into great detail on the subject) but it is difficult to find books specifically covering weld inspection requirements. This book’s subjects are purposely not covered in great detail because it is assumed that the reader is able to find detailed books on specific subject areas of particular interest. What this book will do is give you a basic understanding of the subject and so help you decide if you need to look further. In many cases the depth of knowledge required for any particular welding-related subject will be dependent on specific industry requirements.

Inspectors considering training to achieve certified welding inspector status under certification schemes such as CSWIP (Certification Scheme for Welding Inspection Personnel) or PCN (Personal Certification Number) will find the book a useful pre-course learning aid giving coverage of the ‘body of knowledge’ they are expected to be familiar with. Nonwelding personnel will find it a useful introduction to the world of welding inspection. Some people believe that a welding inspector must have previous welding experience, but this is not necessarily true as welding and welding inspection are two totally different subjects.
