Define the record
A weld log is the current account of identity, status, evidence, and review—not a static list.
Working vocabulary
Weld tracking glossary for fabrication and QA
Plain-language definitions for weld logs, traceability, NDE, handoff, spool status, and related workflow terms.
FIELD CHECK
Definitions are useful only when they tell a reviewer what to inspect and what decision the term changes.
Define the decision
Traceability connects the item, source, and decision a reviewer needs to explain.
Define the handoff
Release means the responsible team can inspect the evidence without a reconstruction meeting.
Evidence presentation
