1、Designation: E1955 04 (Reapproved 2014)Standard Radiographic Examination forSoundness of Welds in Steel by Comparison to GradedASTM E390 Reference Radiographs1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E1955; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal ado

2、ption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This standard covers requirements for radiographicexamination for sound

3、ness of welds in fabricated steel bycomparison to selected severity levels of Reference Radio-graphs E390, Vol II. The base material varies from greater than0.25 to 3 in. (6.476 mm) inclusive in thickness. Volume II isapplicable. This standard is not suitable for shipyard use.NOTE 1This standard was

16、dard can be used to establish acceptancecriteria for weld soundness based on the procedures andreference radiographs of ASTM E390. The grades specified inthis standard, while applicable for general examination use forthe materials and thicknesses indicated, may not be suitable forall applications.5.

17、 General Practices5.1 Personnel QualificationNondestructive testing (NDT)personnel shall be qualified in accordance with a nationally orinternationally recognized NDT personnel qualification prac-tice or standard such as ANSI/ASNT-CP-189, SNT-TC-1A,NAS-410, or a similar document. The practice or sta

19、ate documents.5.3 Extent of ExaminationExtent of radiographic exami-nation of all welds shall be accomplished as required by thedrawing, order, contract or other appropriate document. Ifextent is not provided, radiographic examination shall be100 % of weld joints.6. Application of Reference Radiogra

20、phs6.1 Acceptance CriteriaWelds Graded I, II, III or IV shallcontain discontinuities no more severe than those shown in theseverity levels indicated in Table 1.
