RADIOGRAPHIC TEST SPECIFICATION FOR WELDS.
1. GENERAL.
1.1. This procedure covers radiographic testing of welds when required by the contractor.
‘These instructions are for testing groove welds only in butt joints,
1.2. Variation in the procedure, equipment and acceptance standards not included in this
document may be used upon agreement with the Engineer. Such variations include the
radiographic testing of filet, T, and commer welds; changes in SFDs; unusual application
of film or unusual geometries and film exposure or development variations.
2. EXTENT OF TESTING.
2.1. Information furnished tothe bidder shall clearly identify the extent of radiograpnic
testing.
2.2, When complete testing is specified, the entire length ofthe weld in each designated
joint shall be inspected.
2.3. When spot testing is specified, the number of spots in each designated category of
‘welded joint to be radiographed in a stated length of weld shall be included in
{information furnished o the bidders. Each spot radiograph shall show at least 4 inches
(102 mm) of weld length. Ifa spot radiograph shows discontinuities that required
repair two adjacent spots shal be inspected. If discontinuities requiring repair are
show in either ofthese, the entire length of weld in that welded joint shall be tested
radiographically
3. RADIOGRAPHIC PROCEDURE.
3.1. Radiographs shall be made by either X-ray or isotope radiation methods. All
radiographs shall measure the sizeof discontinuities having thickness equal to or greater
than 2 percent of the thickness of the thinner of the parts joined by the weld under
examination. They shall be clean, ee of film processing defects, and shall have a film
density not less than 1-5 and not more than 4.0. Although radiographs (each single
film) may have a film density of 1.5 minimum to 4 maximum, densities within tie
range of 2.5 to 3.5 are preferred. Radiographs shall show:
3.1:1 The smallest hole in each penetrameter as specified in Figure 11.
3.1.2 The penetrameter identification number.
3.1.3 The radiographic identification and location marks indicated in Figure 12 required
by 3s.
3.2. Radiography shall be performed in accordance with al applicable safety requirements.
3.3. A weld tha is to be radiograpled need not be ground or etherwise smoothed for
purposed of testing unless its surface iregularties or juncture with the base metal could
‘eause objectionable weld discontinuities to be obscured inthe radiograph. Whea weld
reinforcement or backing is not removed, carbon steel shims shal be placed under the
penetrameter so thatthe total thickness of steel between the peneicameter and the film is
at least equal (othe average thickness ofthe weld measured through its reinforcement
and backing.
3.4. Two or more penetrameters shall be used foreach radiograph on a film 10 inch (254
‘mm) or more in length. Only one penetramier need be used for radiographs on films
les than 10 inches in length. Penetrameter shall be placed onthe side ofthe work
nearer the radiation source, as shown in Figure 12. Penetrameters shall conform to the
details shown in Figure 11 except that other penetrameters may be used provided they
9mPRACTICE RADIOGRAPHY EXAM err22016
‘have identification aumbers indicating penetrameter thickness in thousandths ofan inch
‘and comply with all other conditions of this paragraph and Figure 11. The thickness of
teach penetrameter shall be equal to or less than 2 % of the thickness of the thinner of|
the pasts joined by the weld under examination, but ned not be less than 0.005 ine
0.13 mm),
3.4.1 Each penetrameter shall carry lead numbers which identify the minimum thickness
‘of material (0 the nearest 05 inch (1.3 mmm) for which it may be used, ‘The
images of these identifying numbers shall appear clearly on the radiograph.
3.5. A radiograph identification mark and two location identification marks shall be placed
‘nthe steel at each radiograph location. A corresponding radiograph identification
‘mark, and a location identification mark, both of which will show inthe radiograph,
shal be superimposed on each of the location identification marks made onthe stel to
provide a means for matching the developed radiograph to the weld.
36, Any additional information shall be preprinted no less than % inch (19 mm) from the
‘edge ofthe weld or shall be indicated by lead figures on steel.
3.7. Radiographs shall be made with a single source of radiation approximately centered
with respect tothe length of the are being examined, The perpendicular distance from
the radiation source tothe film shall be no Jess than seven times the maximum thickness
ofthe weld under examination, andthe rays shall not penetrate the weld at an angle
areater than 26.5 degrees from a line perpendicular to the weld surface. The film during
exposure, shall be as close to the surface of the weld opposite the source of radiation ws.
possible.
4. QUALITY OF WELDS.
4.1. Visual Inspection. All welds shall be visually inspected. A weld shall be acceptable by
visual inspection if it shows that:
4.1.1 The weld as no cracks.
4.1 2Complete fusion exists between the weld metal and the base metal
4.1.3 ll craters are filled to the fll cross section ofthe weld
42. Nondestructive Inspection. Welds that are subject to radiographic testing in addition to
‘visual inspection, shall be unacceptable ifthe radiographic testing shows any ofthe
types of discontinuities given in 4.2.1,4.2.2, or 4.2.3,
4.2.1 For welds subject wo stress under any condition of loading, the greatest dimension of
any porosity cr fusion type discontinuity that is 1/16 inch (1.6 mm) or larger in
‘greatest dimension shall nt exceed the size. B.indleated Figure 13 forthe effective
throat or weld size involved. The distance from any porosity or fusion type
discontinuity described above to another such discontinuity, to an edge orto any
intersection weld shall not be less than the minimum clearance allowed, C, indicated
by Figure 13 forthe size of discontinuity under examination,
42.2independent of the requirements of 4.2.1 discontinuities having a greatest dimension
of less than 1/16 inch (1.6 mn) ifthe sum of their greatest dimension exceeds 3/8
Inch (9.5 mm) In any linear inch of weld.
4.2.3 The limitation given by Figure 13 for 1-1/2 inch (28.1 mm) joint effective throat
shall apply tall joins or effective throats of greater thickness
