Importance of Welding Inspectors
As someone who tries to be observant about their surroundings, I have noticed that you see very little metal as you move through everyday life. I see brick houses, concrete buildings, wooden structures, but very little metal — except maybe storage sheds. This led me to wonder about the need for welding inspector courses since there was apparently minimal need, based on what I routinely observed. Upon further reflection, I realized that most commercial structures contain massive amounts of metal, much of which was welded to some degree and all of which had to be inspected in order to pass local ordinances for quality construction.
