What's Cracking Your Workflow

Every CWI and special inspector knows these problems. We built Guspora to fix every one of them.

NDT Reports Are Per-Weld but the EOR Wants a Project Summary

You UT 200 weld joints and generate 200 individual reports. The engineer of record wants one summary showing which joints passed, which were repaired, and which need re-inspection. You spend a day in Excel. Guspora rolls up per-weld results into project-level reports automatically.

Welder Qualifications Are Scattered Across Filing Cabinets

A project has 25 welders from 3 different subcontractors. Each welder has WPQRs for different processes, positions, and materials. Tracking who is qualified for which weld joint is a full-time job. Guspora tracks every welder qualification with expiration alerts.

The GC Proceeds Past the Hold Point and the Weld Gets Covered

IBC Chapter 17 requires special inspection at specific hold points. The GC pours concrete over the embed plates before you inspect the welds. Now you need destructive testing or an engineer evaluation. Guspora documents hold points and sends alerts before they are bypassed.

Special Inspection Reports Are the Last Thing Holding Up the CO

The building is finished but the certificate of occupancy is delayed because the special inspection documentation is incomplete. Missing bolt lot tests, missing fireproofing DFT readings, missing weld maps. Guspora tracks every requirement and shows what is still outstanding.

CWI Continuity Tracking Is Your Problem

AWS requires CWIs to demonstrate continuity — six months of inactivity triggers requalification. You track this on a spreadsheet and hope nobody falls through the cracks. Guspora tracks CWI activity automatically and alerts before the continuity window closes.

Built for the Iron, Not the Office

Every feature was designed for the CWI standing on a beam with a UT probe, not a software team that read AWS D1.1 once.

Weld Map

Weld Map Tracking

GPS-tagged photos per weld joint linked to the structural drawing. Track every joint from fit-up through final NDT with accept/reject status. Visual weld map showing project-wide inspection progress.

NDT

NDT Result Logging

UT, MT, RT, and VT results logged per-weld with accept/reject per AWS criteria. Indication evaluation, discontinuity classification, and calibration verification — all tied to the weld record.

Welder Quals

Welder Qualification Database

Track every welder WPQR with process, position, material, and thickness range. Expiration alerts, continuity tracking, and requalification triggers. Verify a welder is qualified for a specific joint before work begins.

AI Reports

AI-Powered Inspection Reports

Work the inspection your way. Guspora generates the report with AWS D1.1, AISC, and IBC citations. Per-weld results roll up into project-level special inspection reports formatted for AHJ submission.

IBC Ch 17

Special Inspection Tracking

IBC Chapter 17 special inspection documentation in one place. Track every required inspection, every hold point, and every outstanding item. Know exactly what is blocking the certificate of occupancy.

Bolt Lots

Bolt Lot Tracking

Skidmore-Wilhelm rotational capacity test results attached to the bolt lot record. Installation method verification, pretension documentation, and lot-to-joint traceability.

Fireproofing

Fireproofing DFT Logging

Dry film thickness measurements logged by location with rated assembly compliance verification. Density testing, adhesion results, and damage documentation.

Offline

Offline Mobile App

No signal on the steel erection site? No Wi-Fi 30 floors up? Guspora works fully offline. Inspect, photograph, log NDT results. Everything syncs when signal returns.

Not Another Generic Inspection App

WeldEye is European-focused with no US code integration. InspectionXpert is CAD-based, not field-oriented. No platform combines welding inspection documentation, NDT reporting, welder qualification tracking, and IBC Chapter 17 management with a full business OS.

14 Inspection Types. One Platform.

Every welding and structural inspection type in a single system. Code-referenced checklists with items specific to your jurisdiction's currently adopted codes.

Weld Inspection & NDT

Visual Weld Inspection (VWI)

AWS D1.1 Ch 6

Weld size, length, profile, undercut depth, porosity, overlap, cracks, incomplete fusion, spatter, arc strikes, base metal condition.

Ultrasonic Testing (UT)

AWS D1.1 Ch 6, ASTM E164

Calibration verification, scanning pattern, indication evaluation per Table 6.2, discontinuity location/size/classification.

Magnetic Particle Testing (MT)

AWS D1.1, ASTM E709

Surface prep, magnetization method, field strength verification (30-60 gauss), indication evaluation, demagnetization.

Radiographic Testing (RT)

AWS D1.1 Ch 6, ASTM E1032

Film quality (density, artifacts), penetrameter placement, geometric unsharpness, indication identification per acceptance criteria.

CJP Weld Inspection

AWS D1.1, AISC 341 (Seismic)

WPS/PQR verification, welder qualification, backing bar removal (if required), NDT per code (UT or RT), visual before/during/after.

Qualifications & Procedures

Welding Procedure Qualification

AWS D1.1 Ch 4

WPS variables, test coupon preparation, mechanical testing (tension, bend, CVN for seismic), PQR documentation, essential variable tracking.

Welder Performance Qualification

AWS D1.1 Ch 4

Test position, process, filler metal, joint type, visual inspection of test coupon, mechanical testing, certification period, requalification triggers.

Structural Steel & Bolting

Bolt Tensioning Inspection

RCSC, AISC 360, IBC 17

Installation method, Skidmore-Wilhelm calibration, rotation verification, snug-tight vs pretensioned, lot testing.

High-Strength Bolt Lot Test

ASTM F3125

Mill test report review, rotational capacity test, mean pretension, coating factor, bolt length verification.

Structural Steel Erection

AISC 303, IBC 17

Column plumbness (1:500), beam alignment, connection fit-up, temporary bracing, anchor bolt placement, base plate grouting.

Steel Deck Inspection

SDI, IBC 17

Weld pattern (puddle weld size/spacing), side lap fastening, pour stop/closure, deck bearing length, hole pattern for composite action.

Coatings & Seismic

Fireproofing Inspection

UL 263, ASTM E119, IBC 17

DFT measurement, density testing, adhesion/cohesion, coverage completeness, damage documentation, rated assembly compliance.

Coating/Paint Inspection

SSPC, ASTM D4541

Surface preparation profile, DFT (wet and dry), adhesion pull-off test, holiday/pinhole detection, environmental conditions.

Seismic Special Inspection

AISC 341, AWS D1.8, IBC 17

Demand critical welds, CVN toughness, filler metal classification, protected zone restrictions, special moment frame connections.

All checklists reference your jurisdiction's currently adopted codes. AWS, AISC, IBC, ASTM, and RCSC standards are common references — Guspora adapts to local amendments.
