Our FR5 bracket summary pairs readings from two different supports

I have identified the bracket through its released failure and final pass, but the two readings use different inspection supports; I want quality to explain that change before we describe the difference as a successful correction.

Trace the support references and the actual correction entry first. A final pass can remain valid while the proposed before-and-after explanation is wrong. Do not rewrite either original reading to make them look comparable.

The final check uses the specified support, while the earlier sheet names a temporary arrangement; quality is asking the inspector why it was used, and the correction note only says adjusted.

We found an extra prop changing an upright reading. Your temporary arrangement may be different, but have the inspector show the actual contacts rather than explain it from the name alone.

And keep the cause unresolved while that happens; the tutor should not learn either fixture distortion or bad inspection from a summary that cannot yet distinguish them.

Inspector confirmed the temporary support had an extra contact and was not the specified method; quality has removed that first reading from the dimensional comparison and is reviewing where else it was used.

That answers why the readings cannot establish the claimed change. It still leaves what adjusted meant for that bracket. Was any physical correction actually recorded elsewhere?

No reliable detail found, so the bracket retains its valid final result but does not supply a correction duration or a cause for the earlier discrepancy; thanks, Ravi, the contact comparison was useful.

Glad it helped. Has the estimator received that reduced claim, rather than just the quality folder update?
