All site weld shall be uniform and shallbe free from any slags, cracks and blow holes. Under-cutting of parent metalmust be avoided.

"Welding in specified areas shall be subjected to X-ray, gamma ray orultrasonic method, as will be specified by purchaser. The extent of suchchecking shall be determined by the Purchaser. Proper equipment hadfacilities are to be arranged by the contactor for such testing purposes.

Welders and work shall be protected from wind and weather.

The required number of welded joints as per approved specifications shall betested at the cost of the Contractor.Welds should be made in flat position wherever possible. Adequate stepsshall be taken to maintain the correct arc length, rate of travel, current andpolarity for the type of electrode and nature of work.

Structural steel shall not be painted or oiled on any area where welding is tobe performed and shall be well cleaned to remove any paint, scale of atleast2 Cm on either side.

The work shall be securely held in position by means of tack welds, servicebolts, clamps or jigs before commencing welding so as to prevent anyrelative movement due to distortion, wind or other causes. When welding isliable to cause distortion, the work shall be securely held in approved framesor jigs.

The sequence of welding shall be such that when possible the memberswhich offer the greatest resistance to compression are welded first.

The welding of a joint shall be arranged so that the resulting tensile andcompressive stresses produced by back portion of the weld, tend to balance

each other. The step back method welding shall be adopted for continuousrun.

Fusion faces may be cut by shearing, chipping, machining or machine gascutting. Hand cutting by gas may be substituted for machine gas cutting onlyif the latter is impracticable, and the cutter shall be adequately guided so thatthe cut edge is clean and uniform. If the fusion face is rough, it shall bedressed by chipping, filling, or grinding in a satisfactory manner.

Welds showing slag inclusion, porosity or lack of proper penetration shall becut and rewelded. Overlap of the toe of the weld and under-cutting of theparent metal should be avoided and where present to a serious extent, shallbe rectified.
