with the specified specification. 

GENERAL An MTR certifies a material’s compliance


with the standard specification such as
Third Party ASME Section II Part A and B or ASTM. The
Inspection MTR is supplied from the material
Vendor manufacturer such as plate manufacturer,
Inspection casting manufacturer, forging manufacturer,
etc.

Inspection and
Heat Number
Test Plan
The MTR document contains heat number
Commodity which is also known as “melt number” and
Inspection is similar to lot or batch number. When the
steel plate is in its molten condition, a
Industrial
sample is drawn out from the batch for
Inspection
analysis of its chemical composition. This
Quality Control plate is given a particular identification
Plant Inspection number known as heat number.

Coating The heat number provides a way to trace


Inspection back the steel plates to its production units
Pre-Shipment and process conditions. During the
Inspection inspection of the material the heat number
mentioned on the MTR must match with one
