NONDESTRUCTIVE TESTING OF WELDS

A SYMPOSIUM WAS HELD ON NONDESTRUCTIVE TESTING OF WELDS BECAUSE THE EVER-GROWING INTEREST IN SAFETY IS INSPIRING MUCH EFFORT IN ASSURING CONSTANT QUALITY OF WELDS. NEEDS WERE DISCUSSED FOR COMPETENT TESTING PERSONNEL, MORE SENSITIVE DETECTION METHODS, CORRELATION OF FLAW SIZES WITH SERVICE FAILURES, EFFECT OF LOW CYCLE FATIGUE, INSPECTION OF WELDED BRIDGES AND PIPES BY ULTRASONICS, AND AUTOMATED RADIOGRAPHIC AND ULTRASONIC SETUPS TO LOCATE DEFECTS IN PRESSURE TANKS.
