Terminology given in the test is that recommended in BS 499 Pt.1:1983; Weld Symbols to BS 499 Pt 2: 1980. To supplement this further, however, an indication of both International (ISO) and American standards is given. The sections are written in general terms and do not include all of the conditions that may apply to a specific fabrication or product. The examining body, CSWIP, expect candidates, for the Senior Welding Inspectors' Examination, to have sufficient knowledge of both 3:1 and 3:2 levels. Because of this, the text is based on the established Welding Inspectors’ course and additional information required for the senior level has been included. It is assumed course members have previously attended course WIS 5.
