Full job description
Certified Welding Inspector (CWI) -- Structural Steel / Travel / West Virginia
We are placing two CWIs on an active structural steel modification project at a major steel production facility in Apple Grove, West Virginia. Work starts this week. Per diem included.
The project
You will be inspecting weld work on four large-scale structural steel silos -- each laid horizontal, with a 12-to-14-foot working wall. The scope is external L-profile stiffener ribs welded to ASTM A572 Grade 60 plate (3/8 to 7/16 inch). All welding is SMAW (stick), intermittent weld sequences, performed from aerial lifts. Roughly 1,850 linear feet of weld across all four silos. Inspection method is magnetic particle (MT). WPS and engineering drawings are provided and on-site.
What you will be doing
Reviewing WPS documentation, conducting MT inspections at each weld sequence, documenting results, and signing off on completed work. You will be on-site with the weld crew throughout -- this is not a desk role. Two openings total.
