U-Stamped Vessels

[mechcat]

Is the certificate holder allowed to sub-contract the welding of the longitudinal & circumfrential welds in a U stamped vessel to a non approved shop or employ contract welders.

The U stamp holder can use contract welders only if has complete control , say to to terminate them; mean that are treated as employees.

no: Any Code welding can not be done by outside shops or contractors who do not have a stamp of authorization.

Further to my previous thread.
When the certificate of autorization states “….. and field sites controlled by the location” , how does this work?, should each location be listed in the quality manual.
What happens if they obtain an order at a new location, will this new location need to be audited by the AI.

Thanks

Your cert of Autho. should descrive "field work"
you must have in your qc manual the description of controlled field work.
apply to any jobs within your area or the world if you have capabilities... and Auth. agency to support you,
