Reinforcing element tobe interpreted as pads, saddles, weldolets, sockolets etc. Seal welds of threaded joints shall be given the same examination as socket welds, ‘Unless specifically stated, all materials shall be for "Non-IBR" service. Magnetic Particle & the Liquid Penetrant method of examination shall be in accordance with Section V of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Article VI and VI respectively. The entire area of the accessible finished weld surface shall be examined. Selected root runs, subject to « maximum of 10%, before finished weld, may also be examined, at the discretion of the engineer-in-charge. 8) Wherever MP / LP testing is specified, either MP or LP test may be used. But wherever only MP test is specified, LP method of examination may be used only if MP examination is impracticable in the field as concurred by BIL site-in charge. b) "Random 5%" of Liquid Penetrant / Magnetic Particle test shall mean testing, by applicable test, one weld for each twenty welds or less made by the same welding procedure. "Random 10%" shall mean testing, by applicable test, one weld for cach ten welds or less made by the same welding procedure. Similarly "Random 20%" shall mean testing, by applicable test, one weld for each five welds or less made by the same welding procedure. ©) When Liquid Penetrant examination is specified, the surface shall be free of pened discontinuities 4) Inspection shall be performed in the welds excluding those for which radiography has been done, ©) Girth weld, branch weld, attachment weld & socket weld of 3-1/2% Ni steel shall bbe Liquid Penetrant tested only when welded with austenitic material where MP test has been specified. Radiography: 8) "Random 5%, 10% or 20% radiography" shall mean examining not less than ofte from each 20 welds or less in case of "Random 5% radiography", 10 welds or less in case of "Random 10% radiography", one from each five welds or less in case of "Random 20% radiography" made by the same welding procedure. Irespective of percentage, no. of welds to be radiographed shall be minimum 1. However first two welds made by each welder shall also be radiographed in case of "Random radiography". Welds selected for examination shall not include flange welds and shall be radiographed for their entire length. However, where itis impossible or impracticable to examine the entire weld length of field welds for either random or 100% radiography, and if the same impossibility is agreeable to BIL site-in- charge, then a single 120 deg. exposure of the weld length may be given a Magnetic Particle test or Liquid Penetrant test.

Hardness test shall be in accordance with ASTM specification E10. Hardness tests of the heat affected zone shall be made at a point as near as practicable to the edge of the weld.

Hardness test where specifically called out in Table-1 of this specification or in PMS, shall bo carried out irrespective of thickness and to the extent (Hage) as mentioned therein, All welds which are given heat treatment shall be hardness tested. Hardness test shall be performed after final heat treatment. A minimum of 10% of welds, hot bends, and hot formed components in each furnace heat treated batch and 100% of those which are locally heat treated shall be hardness tested.

In the event of failure of any retest specimens, the production welds carried out by this welder subsequent to the previous test shall be given special consideration.
