correct, they made a broad swipe at it(in paragraph 6.6.1) by saying that the contractor's responsibility for visual inspection was to make sure that the welding/fabrication conformed to the code(in so many words)....but it now nails it to Table 6.1, no grey area there.
BTW, after looking at the new D1.1(2008), what do you figure the reason was to change the Sections to Clauses?....now i have to retrain my thinking when talking D1.1 and when including references.
