Dwg 251-7616055 (D) is unclear on welding, and inspection requirements. Specifically, joint designs and NDT requirements. Request joint designs and NDT requirements for pipe welding be provided.

A3: The Statement of Work within Section C states “Welding shall be in accordance with NAVSEA Technical

Publication S9074-AR-GIB-010A/278, with welders and procedures qualified IAW NAVSEA Technical Publication T9074-AQ-GIB-010/248.”.
