I am reviewing an FR10 welding proposal using old gusseted-bracket records: alignment while restrained, dimensional failure after release, then an unexplained correction. What should establish the released measurement condition before we consider whether additional restraint belongs in the new fixture?
Find the datum and support condition used for the released reading, with the drawing revision; otherwise more restraint is being proposed before you've established what the old measurement describes.
I would ask inspection before assuming the missing sketch means an improvised check. The method may be held separately, although that still needs to be identified.
Either can help, Gabriel. I'd follow an explicit gauge reference first if one exists; a signature is not proof the person remembers the historical setup.
Gabriel, the route explicitly puts final inspection after correction. Nathan, I have no incoming measurements in this record set. Neither fact supplies the missing released support condition.
Then the proposal should not call the final result as-welded. It represents a route including correction, even if nobody has yet explained that operation.
Keep the restraint decision open until the measurement and process gaps are addressed; a fixture can hold nominal shape without demonstrating what the released weldment will be.
