All parts are inspected for problems, ensuring the client receive only the highest quality welds. This is achieved by following the welding engineering standards which typically include:-

1. Illustrated profiles of each typical joint intended for use showing;
   1. The type of joint (e.g. butt, lap, tee, corner, edge)
   2. The type of weld
   3. The geometry of the preparation and fit up
   4. The standard welding symbol
   5. The range of thickness
2. Minimum permissible sizes of fillet and partial penetration grove welds.
