I feel like option D sounds familiar, but I can't recall if it specifically mentions fabrication and repair.

I remember practicing a question similar to this, and I think it was about the scope of inspection for different weld types. That might be option C?

I think API RP 577 covers the types of welds that need inspection, but I'm not entirely sure if it specifies the techniques as well.
