UG-93, see below quotation:
(1) For plates, the vessel Manufacturer shall ensure
all requirements of the material specification, and all special
requirements of this Division, that are to be fulfilled
by the materials manufacturer have been complied with.
The Manufacturer shall accomplish this by obtaining certificates
of compliance or Material Test Reports. The
Inspector shall determine if these documents represent the
material and meet the requirements of the material specification.
(2) For all other product forms, the material shall be
accepted as complying with the material specification if
the material specification provides for the marking of each
piece with the specification designation, including the
grade, type, and class if applicable, and each piece is so
marked.
i think either AIS or AI has the obligation to tell you the source of such requirement if you ask the question. |
