Action on Previous Inspection Findings 1.
(Closed) Deviation (Item A, Notice of Deviation, Insp, : tion Report No. 79-01):
Current QA Program does not require a determination of corrective action relative to discrepancies found during calibration of welding equipment measuring devices.
The inspector verified that provisions for consideration of effects of use of welding equipment measuring devices, subsequently es-tablished to be out of calibration, had been made in Shop Procedure XII-2W, revision dated July 9, 1979. Absence of recorded instances of welding equipment errors iin excess of calibration tolerances precluded evaluation of corrective action effectivity during this inspection.
2.
(Closed) Deviation (Item B, Notice of Deviation, Inspection Report No. 79-01): Failure to select an appropriate WPS for a certain weld and use of a preheat temperature in welding below the minimum stipu-lated by the applicable drawing.
The inspector verified that the committed training actions with re-spect to welding supervision had been performed, the stipulated nondestructive examination of the weld performed using below minimum reheat had been satisfactorily accomplished and that the welding parameters of Welding Procedure 26 and 27 were compatible.
