Welding Inspections - Jacksonville Florida
December 15th, 2023 | 2 min. read
Welding inspections play a crucial role in ensuring the structural integrity of your building. Regardless of your project type, welding is used to connect steel beams, columns, and footers, and to support walls, roofs, and flooring. Because welding is the process of joining metals, the quality of the welding directly impacts the reliability of the building.
At Legacy Engineering, we offer exceptional welding inspection services by our trained technicians.
The primary objective of these inspections is to verify that the welds meet the specified requirements including strength, size, and position. Our team will observe and thoroughly inspect the welding job while implementing the codes written by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the American Welding Society (AWS).
With a complete understanding of the welding codes, your welding will be inspected and deemed satisfactory or unsatisfactory according to your plan’s specifics.
Welding inspections are vital not only for ensuring structural integrity but also for guaranteeing the safety of occupants and longevity of the building. The significance of these inspections cannot be overstated, as even minor welding defects or deviations from specifications can lead to catastrophic failures in the future.
One of the critical aspects of welding inspections is ensuring that the welds meet specified requirements regarding strength, size, and position. Strength is crucial to bear the loads the structure will experience throughout its lifespan. The size of the weld determines its ability to distribute stress evenly, while proper positioning ensures that the weld contributes effectively to the overall stability of the structure.
At Legacy Engineering, our trained technicians undergo rigorous training to conduct thorough welding inspections. They are well-versed in the codes established by reputable organizations such as the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the American Welding Society (AWS). By adhering to these codes, we ensure that welding processes are executed with precision and in accordance with industry standards.
