This presentation provides a comprehensive overview of the key factors that determine weld quality, including material type, thickness, welding process, appearance, cost, and applicable codes. It explains how inspection criteria differ across CSA, ASME, and AWS standards, and examines the role of loading conditions—static, cyclic, and dynamic—in defining weld acceptability.
