Welding Record Template
A welding record for logging welding activity on a job - the job description and number, the welder, the dates and hours worked, the welder or plant ID, the work completed, whether it was inspected and any defects or repairs. One sheet gives you a clear history of the weld.
For structural steelwork to BS EN 1090, welding has to be carried out and recorded under control, and a quality management system aligned with ISO 9001 (clause 8.5) expects production to be traceable. This record captures who welded what, when and to what result.
Built for EN 1090 and ISO 9001
The record captures the welding detail a controlled process needs:
- The job description and number the welding relates to
- The welder and the welder or plant ID doing the work
- The dates, hours and work completed for each entry
- Whether the work was inspected, and any defects or repairs
- A final inspection sign-off to close the record
What's Included in this Welding Record
The form is set out as a single welding record sheet:
- Header details - job description, job number and welder
- Welding log - date, hours, welder / plant ID, work completed and whether it was inspected
- Defects and repairs - space to note any defects found and the repairs carried out
- Final inspection - name and date confirming the welding has been inspected
Who Needs a Welding Record?
Any fabricator, welding shop or steelwork contractor that needs to show its welding is carried out under control and traceable. It is a core record for businesses working to BS EN 1090 and for anyone running a quality management system to ISO 9001.
Included in the BS EN1090 Toolkit
This form is part of the BS EN1090 Toolkit - the registers, procedures, forms and guidance for running a welding management system in one download - and is included in every alphaZ ISO toolkit that covers quality management.
Pairs with the Welder Qualification Record
A welding record shows the work was done; the F-Q46 Welder Qualification record shows the welder was approved to do it. Keep the two together for full welding control.
