About International Welding Inspection Personnel (IWIP) – Basic Level

The SAIW flagship Welding Inspector training programmes are tailored to meet industry requirements for welding inspection personnel involved in the fabrication, petrochemical, refinery, process plant, power generation, construction and other

industries. Qualification as a welding inspector is an ideal platform to build a career as a third party inspector or to progress further as a technical expert or manager of an inspection function.

The IWIP course is designed to equip an inspector to conduct basic inspections, to identify welding defects and witness and validate welder qualification tests. Students obtain a useful qualification which allows them to gain employment.

Important to note: This course is the first level of a new 3-level programme, which will comprise International Welding Inspector Personnel (IWIP) Basic, Standard and Comprehensive levels.

Upon completion of the Basic Level, two years working experience is required before moving on to the Standard Level. To progress from the Standard Level to the Comprehensive Level, two years working experience is required.

The SAIW has decided to fully implement the International Institute of Welding (IIW) IWIP Programme in order to afford candidates an Internationally recognised qualification. Those who pass will receive an IIW certificate.

The IIW is represented in more than 50 nations across five continents and is the leading welding organisation in the world.

SAIW

About Senior Welding Inspector

The SAIW flagship welding inspector training programmes are tailored to meet industry requirements for welding inspection personnel involved in the fabrication, petrochemical, refinery, process plant, power generation, construction and other

industries.

The Senior Welding Inspector course, which is for those who have successfully completed the Welding Inspector Course, completes the training as a welding inspector and further upgrades skills to a level where candidates are able to take on and manage all inspection activities, including being able to confirm the code compliance of a welding procedure.

Since 2010, the SAIW welding inspectors training programmes and examinations are fully aligned with the International Institute of Welding (IIW) IWIP Standard level inspection diploma, but the combined Welding Inspector and Senior Welding Inspector courses are more comprehensive than the IIW syllabus as they incorporate material identified as essential by national industry experts. Important to note: From 2017, the SAIW Level Two Welding Inspector Course will serve as a transition course for the IWIP Programme (see page 8).

Students having successfully completed the Senior Welding Inspector course automatically qualify for the internationally recognised IIW IWIP standard level diploma, which is awarded automatically, provided the student meets the following IIW course access conditions:• The candidate has to be at least 20 years old at the time of taking the course• The candidate has to have a senior certificate or equivalent with pass marks in mathematics

and science• The candidate must have at least 2 years’ relevant practical experience• Candidates with a GETC qualification (Grade 9) require an additional 3 years of relevant

experience, i.e. a total of 5 years’ experience• Students who qualified as Senior Welding Inspectors (SAIW – Level 2) before 2010 have

to complete an extra 2 day module and exam in construction and design. (Details on application)

About Appreciation of Welding

Welding is a complex subject with many welding processes available ranging from the traditional “stick” welding through to advanced processes such as laser welding.

In addition, there are many materials for the engineer to utilise including a large range of ferrous alloys ranging from steel alloys through to cast iron as well as non-ferrous alloys. Techniques have also been developed for welding plastics, ceramics and other exotic materials. The Appreciation of Welding course is designed to provide candidates with an overview of welding technology in order to understand welding better and make informed welding related decisions.

With increasing operating stresses and temperatures, use of new materials and innovative designs, engineers are finding it increasingly difficult to contain maintenance and fabrication costs due to their lack of knowledge of welding technology and related sciences. With increased knowledge of welding technology, it has been proven that substantial cost savings are possible.

Personnel in senior positions must have an appreciation of welding technology to ensure that maintenance, fabrication and construction work is being carried out effectively in terms of quality and cost effectiveness.

About Welding Symbols

Welding symbols are used as a pictorial language to convey weld requirements. The weld symbol conveys to the fabricator the position of welds, type of joint to be used, the size of the weld and the amount of weld metal to be deposited. Welders

that work with fabrication drawings must be able to interpret welding symbols to prepare the joint and apply a weld that meets the specifications. Welding inspectors must be able to read and interpret welding plans.

The welding symbol course provides a detailed review of the use of welding symbols in the fabrication environment. The course covers the use of the European system for welding symbols (ISO 2553) as well as the use of the American system (AWS A2.4). The course will also deal with the difficulties encountered in engineering design and fabrication workshops with the use of two different systems. Concepts covered in the course include orthographic views, joint types and weld types, basic joint geometry, key terms, and basic rules of welding symbols and non-destructive testing symbols. The course covers all types of welds including groove welds, fillet welds, plug and slot welds, spot and projection welds, and stud, seam, surfacing, and edge welds.

This course is ideal for all fabrication personnel including welding supervisors, quality controllers and welding inspectors. The course is also ideal for personnel involved in engineering design as well as draughting and detailing personnel.

This course should prove of value to welding personnel who may not have a sound appreciation of the metallurgical principles of welding.

40 27 Feb - 03 Mar

Welding Metallurgy

Welding usually involves the melting of a filler metal and its deposition in a groove between two pieces of solid metal in order to join them. This and similar processes involve some important physical and chemical processes such as the rapid heating,

melting and superheating of the filler metal and possible reactions that may take place between the molten or re-solidified metal from contact with the atmosphere and the parent metal(s): the fast re-solidification of the molten metal upon contact with the cold parent metal(s) and its effects on the structure and properties of the weld: the rapid heating and cooling of the parent metal(s) and their effects on the structure and properties of the heat affected zone: reactions between the parent metal and the environment due to the heating and cooling cycles.

The response of metals and alloys to welding is different to that in other processes due to the rapid heating and cooling cycles. The heating cycle leads to substantial overheating while the rapid cooling cycles lead to substantial undercooling, which has a significant effect on the microstructure and properties of the metals concerned. This course deals with fusion welding and its characteristics followed by a discussion of solid state welding and joint properties. The metallurgy of carbon, low alloy and high alloy steels including stainless steels is discussed in relation to welding.

Preheating and post weld heat treatment are dealt with as well as stresses and distortion. The metallurgy of dissimilar metal joints and the welding of castings and clad materials are dealt with. Quality assurance in welding is finally discussed.

Failure Analysis

Engineering components and structures will fail at some stage. Those failures which occur after the design life has been exceeded are normally easy to predict and manage. What is of concern are the unexpected or premature failures which may result in substantial

financial loss and often injury or loss of life. There are indeed countless examples of recent catastrophic failures which had dire consequences. Many of these failures can be prevented by taking appropriate steps at the outset and all failures of importance should be analyzed to ensure they do not happen again.

It is important for the design engineer to appreciate that codes and specifications do not tell one everything there is to know about structural materials and their behaviour, just like a chemical analysis does not reveal much about a steel and its properties. This course aims to review the mechanical properties of metals and alloys and the more common failure types and how to avoid them. The principles of failure analysis will be discussed in some detail. The characteristics of the different failure types will be outlined including those of ductile failure, brittle failure, fatigue fracture, torsion failure, creep failure, corrosion failures, wear failures and failures due to inadequate design. It also covers aspects of embrittlement and defects arising from fabrication processes which may initiate failure.

The treatment will be fundamentally descriptive and candidates with a basic engineering or technical background should benefit from this course. Some case studies will be presented to illustrate various failures and their treatment.

Weld Quality Management and Welding Coordination:ISO 3834 and ISO 14731

Manufacturing processes such as fusion welding are widely used to produce many products, and for some companies, these are the key production features. Products may range from simple to complex. Examples include pressure vessels, domestic and agricultural equipment, cranes,

bridges, transport vehicles and other items.

These processes exert a profound influence on the cost of manufacture and on the quality of the product. It is therefore important to ensure that these processes are carried out in the most effective way and that appropriate control is exercised over all aspects of the operation. The ISO 3834 Quality Management System will be consulted to clearly define all the welding related aspects and how to manage them on a day to day basis.

The course is aimed at assisting those in the Welding Coordination teams to implement and manage ISO 3834 as well as to familiarise them with their roles as stated in ISO 14731.

About IIW International WelderINTRODUCTION

South Africa is in need of high quality welding skills. The International Institute of Welding (IIW) has developed a training programme for welders where the IIW seeks to achieve harmonisation in the training, examination and qualification testing of welders

in the world. The training and assessment is linked to the requirements of ISO 9606, which provides a scheme for qualification testing of welders. Internationally, and specifically in South Africa, industry requires welders with more skill for the sake of flexibility in production. The International Welder programme provides a combination of comprehensive theoretical knowledge and high practical skills assessed by tests of increasing difficulty including ISO 9606 qualification tests and by theoretical examinations. The programme is presented at three different levels which are progressive, fillet, plate and pipe welder.

Training times for practical welding vary from person to person; therefore the training times detailed on page 60 are based on previous training experience. It is possible to finish the required modules in a shorter period of time whilst some individuals may require additional training time compared to that indicated in the table on page 60.

OBTAINING QUALIFICATION FOR EXPERIENCED WELDERSExperienced welders may enter the programme at any level. In order to obtain the qualification, the relevant theory training and examination will need to be completed along with all the relevant qualification (including lower levels, ie Module A & B) tests pertaining to the qualification required. Example: If a welder requires the International Pipe Welder qualification (all positions) for TIG welding, the theory modules and examinations (A, B, C & ST – 9 days) would need to be completed and the 5 qualification tests (Fillet, Plate & Pipe) as detailed opposite. No practical training is necessary if the welder is competent to achieve the required quality standard as detailed in international standards (ISO 9606) for all the required qualification tests. Once an assessment has been undertaken on the welders skill level, an individual training programme can be specified which will be quoted individually.

SAIW

About IIW International Welder (continued)

OUTCOMES OF TRAINING Upon completion of the course, trainees will be able to demonstrate the required level of skill in accordance with ISO9606 or similar standard (ASME IX) and pass the required theoretical examination. Candidates will be able to produce basic Fillet, Plate and Pipe Welds with the chosen welding process depending on the level of qualification and have a basic understanding of the theory of welding. The graduating welder will be awarded with an IIW Diploma plus a Welder Performance Qualification (WPQ) as per International Standards.

Should a student welder undertake multiple modules, experience has shown that the student will progress quicker through the modules compared to the estimated periods detailed above. For a welder with limited skill, it is recommended that the training programme is started with SMAW using carbon steel. Alternative materials can be added once the welding process and position technique have been mastered. The different training work pieces are designed to improve the welders skills in different welding configurations in all welding positions progressing to more difficult welding tasks.

PRICINGCore Module: R 52 500 including VAT. The core modules includes 12 weeks of training which is inclusive of the 2 weeks theory module. Additional blocks of 12 weeks training can be booked at the above price to complete the International Welder training programme as required.

About Non Destructive Testing (NDT)

Non Destructive Testing (NDT) refers to the testing of material and components without inhibiting its further usefulness. Applied scientific principles such as electromagnetic induction, magnetism, capillary action, mechanical vibration, electromagnetic waves, etc. are utilised to identify and

characterise discontinuities within tested samples or areas of interest.

TrainingSAIW-NDT, being an SAQCC-NDT Approved Training Organisation (ATO), provides courses in compliance with the requirements of the SAQCC Scheme and the international standard for qualification and certification of NDT personnel namely ISO 9712: 2012.

The ISO technical reports of ISO TR 25107 (Syllabus) and ISO TR 25108 (Service Provider) are used as guides for the training programmes, designed to facilitate ISO 9712: SAQCC NDT qualification. Compliance with these documents is established via an annual assessment and on-going monitor programme, controlled by the personnel certification body (PCB), which, in this case, is SAIW Certification.

NDT Training is provided at all levels defined in ISO 9712 namely Level 1, 2 and 3 and for the following methods:

Surface Testing: Eddy Current Testing (ECT); Magnetic Testing (MT); Penetrant Testing (PT); Visual Testing (VT).

Volumetric Testing: Radiographic testing (RT); Ultrasonic Testing (UT).

A progressive NDT career path in NDT could consist of the following:VT 1 ⇨ PT 1 ⇨ MT 1 ⇨ ECT 1 ⇨ VT 2 ⇨ MT 2 ⇨ PT 2 ⇨ ECT 2 ⇨ RT Safety ⇨ RT 1 ⇨ UT 1 ⇨ RT 2 ⇨ UT 2

Progression into NDT Level 3 is strongly advised should a candidate be interested in developing, maintaining and managing the quality environment / systems within which NDT is performed.
