Seems like a Catch 22 for Graham.

Maybe I am not remembering correctly, but I think Graham chose the welder from a list of pre approved contractors the city gave them. I think it was up to Graham to actually verify the work that pre approved contractor did was up to spec. I don't think the city inspected the welds until they were installed in Calgary.
Again, I could be wrong, it was a year ago, but if what I remember is true, ultimately to me it would be up to the contractor to verify actual work regardless if the city had approved a company list to work with.
