The inspector should review the material test report to confirm that the<br />
material(s) being used for fabrication of new equipment or repair of existing<br />
equipment meet the requirements specified by the user. The welding<br />
engineer can also use the information from a materials test report to<br />
determine the weldability of the materials to be used, and to recommend<br />
proper welding procedures, pre-heat and/or post-weld heat treatment. The<br />
chemical analysis given in the test report can be used to calculate the carbon<br />
equivalent for that material. It is important to note that materials test reports<br />
are not generally supplied to the purchaser unless requested.
