Field PM
Most welding codes (AWS D1.1, ASME IX) require a welder to use a process at least every six months to stay qualified. Continuity tracking records each welder's last weld date so you know when a qualification is about to lapse and a re-test is due.
Three tabs: Part A — a WPS index (procedure, base/filler metal, process, position, code); Part B — welder qualification & continuity (what each welder is qualified to, qual dates, last weld, continuity status, next-due); and Part C — a production weld log tying welds to drawings, WPS, NDE, and acceptance.
It's code-agnostic with fields for the code/standard, P-numbers, processes (SMAW/GTAW/GMAW), positions, and diameter/thickness ranges — usable for AWS D1.1 structural and ASME IX pressure work. Enter your governing code per WPS.
The Part C production log is a tabular weld log; for a drawing-linked weld map with NDE and turnover data books, that's what Field PM's weld mapping module adds on top of this structure.
Welding QC lives or dies on documentation: which procedures are approved, which welders are qualified for them, whether their qualifications are current, and which welder made each production weld. Let continuity lapse — a welder who hasn't run a process in six months — and the welds they made may not be acceptable.
This workbook ties it together in three tabs: a WPS index (Part A), a welder qualification and continuity log that flags when re-qualification is due (Part B), and a production weld log that connects each weld to its drawing, WPS, NDE report, and final acceptance (Part C).
A spreadsheet weld log is a starting point. Field PM's weld mapping adds drawing-linked weld maps, NDE and repair tracking, and one-click turnover data books — included free — so closeout isn't a week of collating paper.
