:grin: Hi Everyone,
I'm a little new to Inspection. I just wanted to ask, in AWS D1.1 table 6.1 (6) there’s a wait time of 48Hrs for visual inspection. Does the same hold true for UT & RT? If so where is it in the specification?

The wait applies to specific steels only. The info you're looking for can be found.... by reading the applicable code. It's in Sec 6, Inspection.

Like L51174 stated, there are a few grade 100 and grade 100W steels like ASTM A514, A517, A709....that require the waiting period.(See Clause 6.11 2nd paragraph)

otherwise it should be cooled to ambient temp, or close.

Took the CWI using API for the open book portion?

Al, that very question appeared on my CWI exam back in "the day" when I took it.

That's my point John. The practice questions provided to those individuals taking the D1.1 session still includes that very question.

Best regards - Al
