Manual de procedimientos para la inspección visual de soldadura en aceros al carbón y estructural de acuerdo con la norma AWS D.1.1:2020

Abstract

Advances in industrial processes and the needs in quality control of products and processes has allowed the development of various inspection methods. In the metalworking industry, these surveillances are common and an essential step to the time to deliver a product, structure or welded joint. These needs have encouraged that academic and work environments adopt methods that help maintain quality and standard in your welds. Thus, for the preparation of this document, a documentary review was carried out related mainly to the characteristics of the most used steels for welded joints and, the defects anddiscontinuities which in turn details the AWS D1.1 standard, the main code of the procedure contained herein, this code in turn served to synthesize definitions and, conceptually explain some of the most common defects and discontinuities in the industry that require technical knowledge on the part of the inspector.
