The years 2020 and 2021 were unprecedented for the welding and fabrication industries. While the global pandemic forced shutdowns and supply chain disruptions, it also accelerated the adoption of digital workflows, remote inspection, and advanced non-destructive testing (NDT). For welding inspection professionals, this period marked a pivotal shift from traditional paper-based reporting to integrated digital ecosystems. The demand for authoritative, accessible, and up-to-date documentation—especially in —soared as inspectors, engineers, and students sought contactless learning and reference materials. This write-up examines the key developments in welding inspection technology during 2020–2021, the role of PDF standards, and the enduring impact of that era.
The shift from film to digital was already underway, but 2020–2021 accelerated it due to the inability to share physical films during lockdowns. PDF guides from this period highlight:
