With proper procedures and documentation, we guarantee that your boom is re-certifiable to OSHA CFR 29, Part 1926.1400. We provide our own “in house” seal and certification guaranteeing just this. When required and upon request we can also contract a third party licensed inspector to inspect and certify our work. Welding procedures are “pre-qualified”, or custom designed by a licensed engineer. Personnel are certified to weld to 100,000 psi yield steel, and several welders are certified to weld 140,000psi steel to meet AWS D14.3. “MIG”, “TIG” or”STICK” specifications.
Documentation
- When steel is replaced we can provide lab testing results showing chemical and physical properties of the boom’s original steel.
- Mill run specifications on replacement steel showing compatibility.
- Documented welding procedures (normally AWS D14.3 pre-qualified).
- Technicians AWS certified to the procedure and material utilized.
- Documented Non-Destructive testing showing compliance with AWS D14.3 (or appropriate code), normally ultra-sonic testing x-ray or magnetic particle.
