Acceptance Levels Plate and Pipe


Remarks
At no point shall the excess weld metal fall below the outside surface of the parent material. All weld runs shall blend smoothly Slag inclusion are defined as nonmetallic inclusions trapped in the weld metal or between the weld metal and the parent material. Undercut is defined as a groove melted into the parent metal,at the toes of the weld excess metal, root or adjacent weld metal. Trapped gas, in weld metal, elongated, individual pores, cluster porosity, piping or wormhole porosity. Transvere, longitudinal, star or crater cracks. Incomplete fusion between the weld metal and base material, incomplete fusion between weld metal. (lack of inter-run fusion) Damage to the parent material or weld metal, from an unintentional touch down of the electrode or arcing from poor connections in the welding circuit. Damage to the parent material or weld metal, internal or external resulting from any activities Mismatch between the welded or unwelded joint. Excess weld metal, above the base material in the root of the joint The absence of weld metal in the root area Inadequate cross penetration of both root faces. Excessive penetration, collapse of the weld root Distortion due to weld contraction Irregularities in the root profile due to shrinkage and contraction of the weld metal.
